In children, the loss of function of the upper limb can occur in many pathologies. Assistance devices exist to support the weight of the upper limb by the action of anti-gravity springs. They are rarely adapted to children. The aim of this mandate is to propose an innovative method of algorithmic adjustment so that assistive devices can be used to benefit children and restore their autonomy.
