Initial Testing of Robotic Exoskeleton Hand Device for Stroke Rehabilitation
Sensors, 2023 The preliminary test results of a novel robotic hand rehabilitation device aimed at treatment for the loss of motor abilities in the fingers and thumb due to stroke are presented. This device has been developed in collaboration with physiotherapists who regularly treat individuals who have suffered from a stroke. The device was tested on healthy adults

Design of Thumb Exoskeleton Rehabilitation Device
International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 2018 Thumb nerve injury is a common injury that will affect the movement of the thumb. Exoskeleton for hand rehabilitation typically focus on finger flexion extension and do not support thumb finger opposition, a crucial function for object grasping. This paper presents the mechanical design, implementation, preliminary evaluation and proof of concept of a ...

c^2AIDER: cognitive cloud exoskeleton system and its applications
Cognitive Computation and Systems, 2019 Lower extremity exoskeleton systems have been widely applied in walking assistance, rehabilitation, and augmentation-related applications merely through human-exoskeleton movement collaboration, which cannot analyse cognitive load and pressure of pilots.

Gear-based Multimodal Underdriven Index Finger Exoskeleton Rehabilitation Device
Highlights in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2023 With the increase of stroke patients, wearable hand rehabilitation exoskeleton devices used to do mechanical rehabilitation training have received attention from researchers. Most of the rigid hand exoskeletons can only perform simple flexion and extension training of the finger as a whole, and not single joint training.

A tracking device for a wearable high-DOF passive hand exoskeleton [PDF]
2021 43rd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBC), 2021 In previous work, we developed an exoskeleton (HandSOME II) that allows movement at 15 hand degrees of freedom (DOF) and is intended for take-home use. An activity tracking device was developed in order to track index finger movement with a pair of magnetometers and magnet. The goal was to detect grip attempts by the individual.

The Effects of Exoskeleton Assistance at the Ankle on Sensory Integration During Standing Balance
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023 Exoskeleton devices can reduce metabolic cost, increase walking speed, and augment load-carrying capacity. However, little is known about the effects of powered assistance on the sensory information required to achieve these tasks. To learn how to use an

A Differentiable Dynamic Model for Musculoskeletal Simulation and Exoskeleton Control
Biosensors, 2022 An exoskeleton, a wearable device, was designed based on the user’s physical and cognitive interactions. The control of the exoskeleton uses biomedical signals reflecting the user intention as input, and its algorithm is calculated as an output to make ...
