Abstract

BACKGROUND: Soft pneumatic robots have shown great promises in hand rehabilitation systems as alternatives to conventional rigid systems. However, their application is limited to clinical rehabilitation programs due to their dependency on large-sized compressors as air suppliers. This disadvantage triggered the search for compact portable pneumatic sources.
