Human-Centered Functional Task Design for Robotic Upper-Limb Rehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Robotic rehabilitation has demonstrated slight positive effects compared to traditional care, but there is still a lack of targeted high-level control strategies in the current state-of-the-art for minimizing pathological motor behaviors. In this stu...

Development and Validation of a Kinematically Accurate Upper-Limb Exoskeleton Digital Twin for Stroke Rehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Rehabilitation robotics combined with virtual reality using head-mounted displays enable naturalistic, immersive, and motivating therapy for people after stroke. There is growing interest in employing digital twins in robotic neurore-habilitation, e....

Quantitative and Qualitative Evaluation of Exoskeleton Transparency Controllers for Upper-Limb Neurorehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
High transparency is a fundamental requirement for upper-limb exoskeletons to promote active patient participation. Although various control strategies have been suggested to improve the transparency of these robots, there are still some limitations,...

A Decision Support System to Provide an Ongoing Prediction of Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation Outcome in Stroke Survivors.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Clinicians often deal with complex robotic platform and serious games in stroke patients rehabilitation contexts, and they face two main problems: 1) the interpretation of either the performance in game or measures of a robotic system from the motor ...

Hybrid Rehabilitation System with Motion Estimation Based on EMG Signals.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Patients with upper limb paralysis undergo various types of rehabilitation to reconstruct upper limb functions necessary for their return to daily life and social activities. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an effective rehabilitation support s...

Cooperative Goal Generation for Reaching Tasks in Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Robot-assisted neurorehabilitation requires automated generation of goal positions for reaching tasks in functional movement therapy. In state-of-the-art solutions, these positions are determined by a motivational therapy game either through constrai...

EMG-Based Control Strategies of a Supernumerary Robotic Hand for the Rehabilitation of Sub-Acute Stroke Patients: Proof of Concept.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
One of the most frequent and severe aftermaths of a stroke is the loss of upper limb functionality. Therapy started in the sub-acute phase proved more effective, mainly when the patient participates actively. Recently, a novel set of rehabilitation a...

Impedance Control of a 2-DOF Spherical 5-Bar Exoskeleton for Physical Human-Robot Interaction During Rehabilitation and Assessment.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
This paper presents a novel impedance controller for THINGER (THumb INdividuating Grasp Exercise Robot), a 2-degree-of-freedom (DOF) spherical 5-bar exoskeleton designed to augment FINGER (Finger INdividuating Grasp Exercise Robot). Many rehabilitati...

Assessing Human-Human Kinematics for the Implementation of Robot-Assisted Physical Therapy in Humanoids: A Pilot Study.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
The development of humanoids with bimanual manipulator arms may facilitate assistive robots to perform physical therapy with older adults living at home. As we assume the human-human interaction to be the gold standard of physical therapy, we propose...

Process Evaluation of the Optimized Provision of AT for Impaired Upper Extremity Function Within the OMARM Study.

Studies in health technology and informatics
A quality standard for the ICF-oriented provision of arm supports and robotic arms was designed. To facilitate this new working method, tools were developed in co-creation with all stakeholders. Professionals received training and were asked to apply...
