Using a Collaborative Robot to the Upper Limb Rehabilitation [PDF]

, 2019
Rehabilitation is a relevant process for the recovery from dysfunctions and improves the realization of patient’s Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). Robotic systems are considered an important field within the development of physical rehabilitation, thus allowing the collection of several data, besides performing exercises with intensity and repeatedly.
