The robotic interface is capable of evaluating, enabling and training motor pattern generation and balance across a variety of natural walking behaviors in subjects with neuromotor impairments. Optionally, pharmacological cocktails can be administered to enhance rehabilitation results. It is also disclosed a method for the evaluation, enablement and training of a subject suffering from neuromotor impairments by combining robotically assisted evaluation tools with sophisticated neurobiomechanical and statistical analyses. A method for the rehabilitation (by this term also comprising restoring voluntary control of locomotion) of a subject suffering from a neuromotor impairment in particular partial or total paralysis of limbs, is also disclosed.patentCA2874101KR102116589EP3241586US10406056US10391015JP6379087US9968406IL235827US2017326018US2017325719EP3241586AU2013269175EP2854939CN104363955HK1207326JP2015519138US2015190200EP2854939CN104363955KR20150017747AU2013269175CA2874101WO201317923048783307
