For rehabilitation of the upper limb, the MIT Manus system provided sufficient workspace for horizontal motion [42] and vertical motion in most workspace in ADL. One of trends in the development of rehabilitation robotics has been the development of an exoskeleton system with a full range of motion employing multiple actuators. ArmeoPower was the first commercially available exoskeleton-type...

To address these needs, mechatronic and robotic devices are being developed to automate movement therapy after neurologic injury. This chapter discusses the rationale for these rehabilitators, reviews practical design considerations, and discusses their future development. 

The MIT-MANUS device maims, from the Latin for hand ) was the first rehabilitator to undergo intensive clinical testing. - This device is a planar, two-ievolute-joint, backdrivable robotic device diat attaches to the patient s hand and forearm through a brace (Fig. 35.1). The device can assist or... 

The MIME (Mirror Image Movemeru Enhancer) arm rehabilitator incorporates a PUMA 560 industrial robot arm to manipulate the patient s arm (Fig. 35.2) This device can move the patient s arm in three-dimensional space. For hemiparetic patients, the motion of the patient s unimpaired arm can be tracked with a mechanical digitizing stylus, and that motion can be used to control the trajectory of the impaired arm.
