ABSTRACT
This article presents a conceptual design of a post-stroke rehabilitation device, which is aimed for training the coupled movement of wrist and fingers from flexion to extension in three modalities – passive, active-assisted and active mode of operation. In this article, we describe the configuration, actuation and control system of the robotic device and provide the results of the mechanism’s mock-up evaluation, therapists’ feedback on the design, future work and development plans.
