Summary

After a stroke, more than two out of three patients experience problems with upper limb movement and sensation. During the past decade, robotic technology has been increasingly used to asses these problems in a detailed and accurate manner. However, sensory processing, one of the most important sensory functions, has not been assessed using robotic technology yet. Therefore, our group has developed a robotic assessment of sensory processing. This study is set up to obtain detailed information on how healthy controls perform on this task. This information can then help in identifying abnormal performances (i.e. upper limb sensory problems) in stroke patients. We aim to examine 40 healthy younger adults and 40 healthy older adults.
