Objectives of the REHAROB project
O1: to identify limitations of human assisted upper limb motion therapy in neuro-rehabilitation and propose advanced resolutions to overcome limitations
O2: to develop new, improved, and intelligent upper limb therapy for the disabled with neuro-motor impairments
- Hypothesis 1: improvement by anti-spastic patterns
- Hypothesis 2: increased repetition cuts therapy cost and duration
- Hypothesis 3: REHAROB can be commercialised
O2a: to propose, develop, and assess improved physiotherapy methods for the neuro-rehabilitation of the upper arm
O2b: to apply and develop advanced and intelligent techniques for the motion analysis
O2c: to develop advanced robotic trajectory planning methods and robot control techniques for the motion therapy of the upper arm
O3: to design, build, and clinically test a robotic rehabilitation station, called REHAROB for the improved motion physiotherapy of the upper arm
O4: to promote the acceptance of REHAROB for the improved motion therapy of the upper arm
