Development of a 3D virtual platform for an upper arm robotic exoskeleton

Robotic rehabilitation is overtaking traditional rehabilitation, since it ensures exercises are practiced accurately with flexibility in the degree of assistance that the patients require. Nevertheless, robotics rehabilitation is automatic and can become monotonous, hence, disengage the patient. Alt...
