An Exoskeleton Robot for Human Forearm and Wrist Motion Assist
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2008 The exoskeleton robot is worn by the human operator as an orthotic device. Its joints and links correspond to those of the human body. The same system operated in different modes can be used for different fundamental applications; a human-amplifier ...

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.

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.

Flexohand: A Hybrid Exoskeleton-Based Novel Hand Rehabilitation Device [PDF]
Micromachines, 2021 Home-based hand rehabilitation has excellent potential as it may reduce patient dropouts due to travel, transportation, and insurance constraints. Being able to perform exercises precisely, accurately, and in a repetitive manner, robot-aided portable devices have gained much traction these days in hand rehabilitation.

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
