Mechanical design of an affordable adaptive gravity balanced orthosis for upper limb stroke rehabilitation
In this paper a novel design of non-powered orthosis for stroke rehabilitation is reported. Designed for home based use, it is the first low-cost, passive design to incorporate an assistive level that can be adaptively varied within a closed-loop control scheme. This allows the device to be integrat...
