Right-Arm Robotic-Aided-Therapy with the Light-Exoskeleton: A General Overview
Abstract
Rehabilitation robotics applications and their
developments have been spreading out as consequences of the actual needs
in the human activities of daily living (ADL). Exoskeletons for
rehabilitation are one of them, whose intrinsic characteristics are
quite useful for applications where repetitive, robustness and accurate
performance are a must. As a part of robotic-mediated-rehabilitation
programme into the worldwide, the exoskeletons are trying to improve the
ADL of disable people through the fusion of several disciplines that
lets to expand the capabilities of wearing a powered robotic exoskeletal
device for rehabilitation tasks. This fact deserves to present this
contribution from a general scope point of view, i.e., the technologies
integration and its associated knowledge. So far, the Light-Exoskeleton
which is intended for human arm rehabilitation in post-stroke patients
is introduced. Preliminary experimental results as well as the involved
stages about the system show the capabilities of using a
robotic-constrained-rehabilitation for human arm.
