| Abstract | The people with disabled lower limbs find it difficult to lead an independent life and the lack of upper body exercise may lead to disuse ailment. Various studies have shown that both children and adults benefit substantially from access to a means of independent mobility. Independent mobility is a dream for every person with some or the other physical disability especially in the case of paraplegics. In the research presented in this paper, an assistance platform was developed to help the paraplegic and elderly people by providing the ability to stand-up and move about. Virtual prototype technology was used to make the design and development of the robot more efficient using $Solid-works^{™}.$ The device developed may be used for rehabilitation of people recovering from extended periods of limb disuse and for paraplegic patients. Although some commercialized training machines and some developed lower-limb rehabilitation robots can perform adequate motion functions during lower limb training programs but the weight, size and cost of these devices limits their possibilities of use. In contrast, the proposed design has the potential to be used among the middle socio-economic class as a product in daily household works of the paraplegic patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
