Theses and Dissertations
With the increase of stroke patients, the number of upper limb dysfunction is increasing day by day. Robotic intervention in upper limb (UL) rehabilitation of post-stroke patients has gained much traction in recent years. Though many research groups have developed exoskeletons, existing exoskeletons have limitations in both hardware design and control approaches. In most cases, rehabilitative robotic devices have not considered the movement of the shoulder joint’s center (center of glenohumeral joint); however, this movement leads to misalignment between human joints and robot joints, which is undesirable in any circumstances. To ensure better human-robot interaction (HRI), allowing mobility of shoulder …
