Due to the progress in robotics, exoskeleton has been applied in rehabilitation for those enduring damage in central nervous system, spinal cord, and others. In this kind if application, the main concern is the safety of the user, as he/she is closely connected to the exoskeleton. That means the developed exoskeleton needs be carefully evaluated in each aspect of the design. For this purpose, we develop...
Reaching is one of crucial tasks in order to assist activities of daily living and to support therapeutic rehabilitation. We investigated the dynamics of upper-extremity motions for the reaching tasks at different levels by stroke and able-bodied participants. The two different levels were at the head and chest. The results indicated that the joint moments with respect to levels differed slightly...
Analyzing activities of daily living (ADL) for the development of practical upper limb rehabilitation robots is challenging in stroke patients. Basic ADL tasks using an upper limb are defined based on clinical assessment tools. The motions of 8 healthy participants and 8 stroke patients were recorded during defined ADL tasks, and then analyzed with respect to completion time, linearity of motion,...
