Robot-assisted remote rehabilitation
2019 International Conference on Signal, Control and Communication (SCC), 2019Rehabilitation is the therapy that used to help people with disorders to restore or improve the functions of lost or diminished parts. Robots are popularly used in rehabilitation since the early sixties of the last century. The medical therapy for extremities can be divided into two main categories: upper and lower limb rehabilitation devices.

Control of robot assistant for rehabilitation of upper extremities
2012 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2012The assisted movement in humans with paresis of upper extremities is becoming popular for neurorehabilitation. We propose a novel method for trajectory selection and assistance control. This paper presents simulation of a planar two degrees of freedom robot that assists horizontal movement of the hand.

A system for robot-assisted neuro-rehabilitation of hand function
2009 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2009The systems which have been developed are safe, easily transportable and offer various training possibilities. Virtual-reality games have been implemented to increase motivation during the 8 weeks of training with post-stroke subjects. Clinical trials have shown that chronic stroke patients can perform the required tasks and that training improves ...

An assist-as-needed control scheme for robot-assisted rehabilitation
2017 American Control Conference (ACC), 2017This paper addresses the assist-as-needed (AAN) control problem for robotic orthoses. The objective is to design a stable AAN controller with an adjustable assistance level. The controller aims to follow a desired trajectory while allowing an adjustable tracking error with low control effort to provide a freedom zone for the user.
