Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study we developed wrist rehabilitation system using pneumatic parallel manipulator. Up to now, many types of the mechanical system to perform wrist rehabilitation are proposed, but most of them were done based on a torque that is yielded at a wrist. Then we proposed a method to train muscle located in a forearm directly since the torque is generated from a contraction force of the muscles. We also proposed a training system of not a patient but a P.T. by making the manipulator to behave as a patient wrist model.
