An Application for Wrist Rehabilitation Using Smartphones

Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and Services, 2019
In this paper, we propose a wrist rehabilitation support system using a smartphone app. There are several issues with the conventional wrist rehabilitation systems, primarily that there is no method for quantitatively evaluating whether it has been appropriately carried out or not, that it is difficult for doctors to observe the condition of patients ...

Modeling and control of exoskeleton for wrist and forearm rehabilitation

Biomedical Signal Processing and Control, 2021
Abstract This paper presents the modeling of the user’s dynamics synchronized with a wrist and forearm exoskeleton of 3 degrees of freedom (DoF). The biomechanical model includes components that are presented in post-stroke patients, such as viscosity and elasticity parameters. The dynamic model of the uncoupled exoskeleton is considered, so that the

Improving Motivation in Wrist Rehabilitation Therapies

2019
Rehabilitation encompasses a wide variety of activities aimed at reducing the impact of injuries and disabilities by applying different exercises. Frequently, such exercises are carried out at home as a repetition of the same movements or tasks to achieve both motor learning and the necessary cortical changes.

Wrist Computer Assisted Rehabilitation

2018 World Symposium on Digital Intelligence for Systems and Machines (DISA), 2018
Wrist is one of the most complicated parts of the human's musculoskeletal system. It is not made up of one, but of a series of small joints that bind the bones of the forearm with the palm bone. Because of its complex morphology, and its frequent use in almost every activity, wrist is extremely prone to damage.

Development of the Biomech-Wrist: A 3-DOF Exoskeleton for Rehabilitation and Training of Human Wrist

2023 International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR), 2023
This work describes a three-degrees-of-freedom rehabilitation exoskeleton robot for wrist articulation movement: the Biomech-Wrist. The proposed development includes the design requirements based on the biomechanics and anthropometric features of the upper limb, the mechanical design, electronic instrumentation, software design, manufacturing, control ...

New Vibratory Device for Wrist Rehabilitation

2018
Wrist injuries are very common in most of the population, specially bone fractures, but also other pathologies such as tendinitis and neurological diseases. When the wrist is injured, their flexion-extension and radial-ulnar deviation and pronation-supination movements of the forearm are compromised and interdict most daily activities. Therefore, it is

Interactive System for Hands and Wrist Rehabilitation

2018
An Interactive system is presented for the rehabilitation of hands and wrists using the leap motion device and the Unity3D software. Two applications were created with several movements were by programming such as flexion, wrist extension, pronation, supination and adduction.

A Low-Cost Haptic System for Wrist Rehabilitation

2015 IEEE International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration, 2015
While the regular treatment for wrist stiffness is physical therapy or surgery, researchers are looking for an alternative, more efficient and automatic procedure by means of robotic applications. In this paper, we propose a low-cost system exploiting a haptic interface aided by a glove sensorized on the wrist allowing the identification of the wrist ...

Augmented reality based wrist rehabilitation system

2016 24th Signal Processing and Communication Application Conference (SIU), 2016
Physioterapy is a long period that becomes a part of the life of people who need it. Today, the new touchless sensors have positive influence on the comfort of the rehabilitation and healing period. In addition, with the virtual/augmented reality technology, these processes are expected to be relatively more advanced.

Development of IoT-based robot for wrist rehabilitation

2020 17th International Multi-Conference on Systems, Signals & Devices (SSD), 2020
A robotic solution based on the internet of things (IoT) for home wrist rehabilitation is developed. The proposed architecture allows remote control by gesture. The movement of the wrist performed by the physiotherapist is detected by a Kinect camera before being communicated to the developed human-machine interface (HMI). The Kinect image is processed
