Abstract:

Improving adherence to therapy is a critical component of advancing outcomes and reducing the cost of rehabilitation. A robotic platform was previously developed to explore how robotics could be applied to the social dimension of rehabilitation to improve adherence. This paper aims to report on feedback given by end users of the robotic platform as well as the practical applications that socially assistive robotics could have in the daily life activities of a patient. A group of 10 former and current patients interacted with the developed robotic platform during a simulated exercise session be

Abstract:

People taken by upper limb disorders caused by neurological diseases suffer from grip weakening, which affects their quality of life. Researches on soft wearable robotics and advances in sensor technology emerge as promising alternatives to develop assistive and rehabilitative technologies. However, current systems rely on surface electromyography and complex machine learning classifiers to retrieve the user intentions. In addition, the grasp assistance through electromechanical or fluidic actuators is passive and does not contribute to the rehabilitation of upper-limb muscles. Therefore, this

Abstract:

In Malaysia, every year approximately 40000 people suffer from stroke and many of them become immobilized as an after effect. Rehabilitation robotics to assist disabled people has drawn significant attention by the researchers recently. This project also aims to contribute to this field. This paper presents a Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuated wearable assistive robotic hand for grasping. The proposed design is compact and sufficiently light to be used as an assistive hand. It is a joint less structure, has the potential because the human skeleton and joint replace the robot’s conventional stru

Abstract:

Among the approaches to functional hand rehabilitation after stroke, the use of hand rehabilitation robots can provide functional training of the hand or assist the paralyzed hand in activities of daily living, and in particular, intelligent control strategies play a very important role in rehabilitation robotics. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current status of commercially available intelligently controlled hand rehabilitation robots developed in recent years. Firstly, we summarize the theoretical basis of post-stroke hand rehabilitation in the reviewed literature, and the in

Abstract:

Soft robotics is an emerging field dedicated to the design and development of robots with soft structures. Soft robots offer unique capabilities in terms of flexibility, adaptability, and safety of physical interaction, and therefore provide advanced collaboration between humans and robots. The further incorporation of soft actuators, advanced sensing technologies, user-friendly control interfaces, and safety considerations enhance the interaction experience. Applications in healthcare, specifically in rehabilitation and assistive devices, as well as manufacturing, show how soft robotics has r

Abstract:

For more than a decade, many countries have been actively developing robotic assistive devices to assist in the rehabilitation of individuals with limb disability to regain function in the extremities. The exoskeleton assistive device in this study has been designed primarily for hemiplegic stroke patients to aid in the extension of fingers to open up the palm to simulate the effects of rehabilitation. This exoskeleton was designed as an anterior-support type to achieve palmar extension and acts as a robotic assistive device for rehabilitation in bilateral upper limb task training. Testing res

Abstract:

Objective: In this article, we present the conceptual development of a robotics platform, called ALICE (Assistive Lower Limb Controlled Exoskeleton), for kinetic and kinematic gait characterization. The ALICE platform includes a robotics wearable exoskeleton and an on-board muscle driven simulator to estimate the user’s kinetic parameters. Background: Even when the kinematics patterns of the human gait are well studied and reported in the literature, there exists a considerable intra-subject variability in the kinetics of the movements. ALICE aims to be an advanced mechanical sensor that allow
