ABSTRACT:
Stroke is one of the prominent
causes of disability in the
world. In order to have chances for recovery, the stroke patients need
repetitive and consistent rehabilitation activities or treatment. However, the
increasing number of stroke patients with limited number of therapist and
tra
nsportation problem for rural patients limits the possibility to have better
treatment. This paper discussed the application of robotics system to support
the rehabilitation activities focusing on the upper limb area of the body. The
result shows two designs of upper limb rehabilitation device were fabricated
and controlled. Both prototypes were emphasized on the compact,
transportable/portable and simple operation concept. In order to evaluate the
prototype, real patient test or experiment needs to be conducted.
