Abstract

<p>The goal of this study is to develop a brain-machine interface (BMI) based rehabilitation system for upper limb paralyzed patients. Using this system, we try to realize paralyzed elbow exercise by an exoskeleton device which is moved in synchronization with user's intention of movement for paralyzed arm. In this paper, we developed a new elbow exercise device for upper limb rehabilitation using wire drive structure. This device realizes four motion: flexion of elbow, extension of elbow, abduction of arm and inward rotation of arm. This paper describes the mechanism of our developed device and the result of motion control simulation.</p>
