This video presents the mechanical design, kinematic modelling and feedback control of a pair of limb exoskeletons purposed for medical rehabilitation.
Stable controlled trajectories to emulate rehabilitation exercises, for arms, and legs are of critical importance. This work approaches the development and use of virtual mechanisms controlled by algorithms, for therapeutic movements in human limbs.
EMG-based feedback was proposed to accurately estimate the limb's angular position while a rehabilitation exercise is carried out.
