Chronic hand impairment is common following stroke. This paper presents an actuated thumb exoskeleton (ATX) to facilitate research in hand rehabilitation therapy. The ATX presented in this work permits independent bi-directional actuation in each of the 5 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) of the thumb using a mechanism that has 5 active DOF and 3 passive DOF. The ATX is able to provide considerable joint torques...
Finger impairment following stroke results in significant deficit in hand manipulation and the performance of everyday tasks. Recent advances in rehabilitation robotics have shown improvement in efficacy of rehabilitation. Current devices, however, lack the capacity to accurately interface with the human finger at levels of velocity and torque comparable to the performance of everyday hand manipulation...
