Study Summary
This trial is testing whether a robot can help with therapy for people who have had a stroke, by measuring how well they can do different tasks before and after using the robot.

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Robotic Training GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Robotic therapy. Subjects with Stroke who will perform the targeted training task: exercise using novel tasks on a robotic recumbent cycle.
Group II: Non-Stroke Pilot GroupExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Robotic therapy. Aerobic therapy. Subjects without stroke, pilot subjects tested during early phases while the device and therapeutic task specifications are developed, and throughout the project while the device and tasks are refined.
Group III: Non-Stroke Comparison GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Robotic therapy. Healthy controls enrolled (age 50-85) to contribute to a normative data set on motor learning using the robotic protocols designed for stroke.
Group IV: Aerobic Training GroupActive Control1 Intervention
Aerobic therapy. Subjects with Stroke who will perform aerobic pedaling, duration-matched to the Robotic group.
