Inertial measurement units (IMUs) have become the mainstay in human motion evaluation
outside of the laboratory; however, quantification of 3-dimensional upper limb motion using …

Quantifying three-dimensional upper body kinematics can be a valuable method for
assessing upper limb function. Considering that kinematic model characteristics, performed …

Virtual reality (VR) systems are becoming increasingly attractive as joint kinematics
monitoring systems during rehabilitation. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of the …

The training for both translation and rotation of the hand is desirable for patients with
impairments. This paper focuses on the design and control of a 7-degree-of-freedom cable …

Effortlessly performing activities of daily living constitutes a cornerstone of our personal
independence. Naturally, various forms of upper limb impairments can have a substantial …

This letter presents a versatile upper-limb exoskeleton based on low-impedance torque
controllable series elastic actuators. This experimental platform is designed to validate novel …

We developed an exoskeleton for neurorehabilitation that covered all relevant degrees of
freedom of the human arm while providing enough range of motion, speed, strength, and …

This cross-sectional study investigated the association of physical fitness with cognitive
function, functional capacity and quality of life among institutionalized older adults with …

In the last decade, the objectives outlined by the needs of personal robotics have led to the
rise of new biologically-inspired techniques for arm motion planning. This paper presents a …

The success of the physical therapy and rehabilitation depends on mostly the continuity of
the exercises. The best way to ensure this continuity is to perform the exercises at home …
