Abstract:With the aim of recovery and training of the patients suffering from osteoarthritis, muscular dystrophy and stroke, we present a design and validation model of a mechanical rehabilitation device for the hand. The objective is to bring together the advances in mechanism effectiveness, reduced size, simpler assembly, and lower manufacturing costs. As a result, the proposed exoskeleton employs a minimal number of components and has a very simplistic design. Moreover, training on the designed hand should reduce sp… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
