  • Patent number: 10806657
    Abstract: A rehabilitation system for rehabilitation of a subject including at least one end-effector for interacting with the subject, the end-effector having at least two degrees of freedom of motion, at least one actuator for actuating the at least one end-effector, at least one sensor for measuring at least the position and the speed of the at least one end-effector; at least one sensor for measuring the interaction force between the subject and the end-effector; a memory including at least two initial coefficients and a session including at least one exercise including at least one reference trajectory to be carried out by the subject through actuation of the end effector; and an actuator controlling unit. The memory delivers the initial coefficients and the session, the sensors deliver measurement signals to the controlling unit, and the controlling unit provides a force-controlled feedback based on the initial coefficients.

  • Patent number: 10299979
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a two-degree-of-freedom planar rehabilitating, monitoring and/or evaluating device comprising a first guiding mechanism (2), a second guiding mechanism (3), substantially parallel to the first guiding mechanism (2), a third guiding mechanism (4), substantially perpendicular to the first and second guiding mechanisms (2, 3), and an end-effector (5), wherein the third guiding mechanism (4) is connected to the first and second guiding mechanisms (2, 3), and wherein the end-effector (5) is connected to the third guiding mechanism (4). The present invention also relates to a two-degree-of-freedom planar rehabilitating, monitoring and/or evaluating interactive device adapted for rehabilitation, monitoring and/or assessment of the upper limbs of a subject, comprising said device.
