043A ERA
Adaptation of a robotic arm for the rehabilitation of people who have suffered a stroke
Intervention area
Mobility
Start date
March 1, 2014
End date
December 1, 2014
Although robotic training offers many advantages for stroke rehabilitation, the fact remains that, depending on the training mode chosen (e.g. passive), the person being trained may be tempted to let the robot “do the moving for him/her”, especially if the robot successfully performs a difficult movement rarely practised by the person in everyday life. The aim of this mandate is to find a solution that will enable robotic training to be tested as a means of innovative post-stroke intervention.
