In the researchers' words

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a home-based robotic-assisted gait rehabilitation service using a wearable exoskeletal robot for stroke patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can home-based robotic-assisted gait training improve walking speed in stroke patients? * Does this intervention enhance body composition, gait patterns, balance in participants? * How satisfied are participants with the use of the wearable exoskeletal robot ? Researchers will compare pre- and post-intervention walking speeds, body composition, spatiotemporal parameters, balance, and satisfaction survey and does not establish a control group. Participants will: * Wear a wearable exoskeletal robot for gait training. * Undergo 10 sessions of 30-minute gait training over 4 weeks at home or in nearby indoor spaces. * Participate in physical function assessments including the 10-meter walk test, Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, and Berg Balance Scale before and after the intervention. * Complete quality of life and depression inventories before and after the intervention.
