About
Maxime Bourgain is a researcher at the forefront of rehabilitation robotics and human–robot interaction, with a focus on developing intelligent assistive technologies for stroke recovery and mobility impairment. His key research areas include exoskeleton control, gait analysis, and social assistive robotics. Bourgain’s major contributions include the creation of a novel 3D relative motion method for assessing ergonomic performance in human–robot interfaces, addressing a critical gap in exoskeleton evaluation by providing quantitative metrics for physical interaction quality. He has also advanced stance control in active hip-knee exoskeletons using hidden Markov model-based gait phase detection, demonstrating improved user support through adaptive, context-aware assistance. In preliminary studies, Bourgain explored the use of the social robot NAO for post-stroke rehabilitation therapy, highlighting the potential of socially interactive robots to enhance patient engagement. With over 17 citations across his most-cited works, his research is gaining recognition for its practical impact on rehabilitation engineering. Bourgain’s work bridges robotics, biomechanics, and clinical therapy, offering scalable solutions for personalized, data-driven rehabilitation.
