Here is another robotic arm that can help stroke patients recover faster. PolyU’s robotic arm has a lightweight design. The mobile exo-neuro-musculo-skeleton integrates exo-skeleton, soft robot and exo-nerve stimulation technologies. It weighs 300g and runs on 12V battery supply.
The device reads signals from users’ muscles to react. It consists of components for wrist/hand, elbow and fingers that can be worn together or separately. An app interface is also available for it.
