The invention relates to a system to assist walking in spinal cord injured people, who preserve hip flexion capacity, the system comprising a pair of KAFO-type orthoses with: (a) an angular actuator (5) in each knee; (b) an orientation and acceleration sensor (6) on each leg; (c) a power supply and control system (7) to which all the sensors and actuators are connected; (d) a control algorithm deciding when to flex or extend the knee depending on the walking cycle, using information from the sensors. 本发明涉及一种辅助行走系统，用于保留了髋关节屈曲能力的脊髓损伤患者中，包括一对KAFO型矫形器，该矫形器具有：(a)位于每个膝关节中的角度执行器(5)；(b)位于每条腿上的方向和加速度传感器(6)；(c)与所有传感器和执行器连接的动力源和控制系统(7)；(d)控制算法，其使用来自传感器的信息、根据行走周期来决定何时屈曲或者伸展膝关节。
