L Liu, YY Shi, L Xie - Journal of Mechanics in Medicine and Biology, 2016 - World Scientific
Patients who suffer from stroke have motion function disorders. They need rehabilitation
training guided by doctors and trainers. Nowadays, robots have been introduced to help the
patients regain their motion function in rehabilitation training. In this paper, a novel multi
degree of freedom (DOF) exoskeleton robot, with light weight, including (6+ 1) DOFs, named
as Rehab-Arm, is proposed and developed for upper limb rehabilitation. The joints of the
robot are equipped with micro motors which are capable of actuating each DOF respectively …
