Summary

Among robotic devices, Gloreha, with its compliant mechanical transmission, may represent an easily applied innovative solution to rehabilitation, because the hand can perform grasp and release activities wearing the device by mean of a flexible and light orthosis. Our objective on this research was to the robotic assisted motion and activity in additional to physiotherapy (PT) and occupational therapy (OT), on stroke patients with hand paralysis.
