Abstract

This paper presents the kinematics of modular a parallel robot for post-stroke rehabilitation of elbow and wrist. The targeted motions for rehabilitation are: elbow flexion, pronation/supination, flexion/extension and adduction/abduction (radial/ulnar deviation) of the wrist. The kinematic structure of the robotic system is presented starting from general considerations concerning the rehabilitation protocol of the upper limb. Its kinematics is developed and simulation results are presented for a proposed training exercise.
