HoMEcare aRm rehabiLItatioN (MERLIN): telerehabilitation using an unactuated device based on serious games improves the upper limb function in chronic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: HoMEcare aRm rehabiLItatioN (MERLIN) is an unactuated version of the robotic device ArmAssist combined with a telecare platform. Stroke patients are able to train the upper limb function using serious games at home. The aim of this study ...

A usability study in patients with stroke using MERLIN, a robotic system based on serious games for upper limb rehabilitation in the home setting.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Neuroscience and neurotechnology are transforming stroke rehabilitation. Robotic devices, in addition to telerehabilitation, are increasingly being used to train the upper limbs after stroke, and their use at home allows us to extend inst...

The "Beam-Me-In Strategy" - remote haptic therapist-patient interaction with two exoskeletons for stroke therapy.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: We present a robot-assisted telerehabilitation system that allows for haptic interaction between therapist and patient over distance. It consists of two arm therapy robots. Attached to one robot the therapists can feel on their own arm th...

Toward Standardizing the Classification of Robotic Gait Rehabilitation Systems.

IEEE reviews in biomedical engineering
With the existence of numerous rehabilitation systems, classification and comparison becomes difficult, especially due to the many factors involved. Moreover, most current reviews are descriptive and do not provide systematic methods for the visual c...

Ambient Intelligence Environment for Home Cognitive Telerehabilitation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Higher life expectancy is increasing the number of age-related cognitive impairment cases. It is also relevant, as some authors claim, that physical exercise may be considered as an adjunctive therapy to improve cognition and memory after strokes. Th...

Tele-rehabilitation using in-house wearable ankle rehabilitation robot.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
This article explores wide-ranging potential of the wearable ankle robot for in-house rehabilitation. The presented robot has been conceptualized following a brief analysis of the existing technologies, systems, and solutions for in-house physical an...

Joint amplitude MEMS based measurement platform for low cost and high accessibility telerehabilitation: Elbow case study.

Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
This paper, presents an inertial and magnetic sensor based technological platform, intended for articular amplitude monitoring and telerehabilitation processes considering an efficient cost/technical considerations compromise. The particularities of ...

Vision-Based Pose Estimation for Robot-Mediated Hand Telerehabilitation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Vision-based Pose Estimation (VPE) represents a non-invasive solution to allow a smooth and natural interaction between a human user and a robotic system, without requiring complex calibration procedures. Moreover, VPE interfaces are gaining momentum...

Impedance control in a wave-based teleoperator for rehabilitation motor therapies assisted by robots.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
This paper presents an improved wave-based bilateral teleoperation scheme for rehabilitation therapies assisted by robot manipulators. The main feature of this bilateral teleoperator is that both robot manipulators, master and slave, are controlled b...
