Abstract

Recent estimations state that the absolute number of strokes will increase in the future. For this reason, novel rehabilitation therapies, such as robot-assisted therapy, are essential to speed up patient recovery. This paper describes the design, development, and control aspects of a light-exoskeleton addressing forearm and wrist motions using one actuator. Besides, usability pilot study results are presented.
