| Research Abstract |
We have developed a knee joint robot as an educational simulation tool for students becoming physical therapist or occupational therapist. The knee joint robot can simulate skew home movement (SHM) in a human knee joint. Moreover, the knee joint robot can simulate the knee joint movements of not only a healthy person but also a patient with knee joint troubles, such as range of motion (ROM) trouble, contracture, rigidity, spasticity and so on. The educational effect of the knee joint robot has been verified by the therapists.
