Description
Can be used on non-medical exoskeletons and isokinetic exercise machines
This solution could be applied to the upper limbs
A2PER applies a pair of forces to the segment located downstream of the mobilized joint
(1 active degree of rotational freedom engaged, leaving 5 passive/free degrees of freedom), allowing:
• Cancellation of the two components of the applied torque
• No strain on the joint
• Physiological function of the joint, with its natural kinematics preserved
• No adjustments required / saves time
• Freedom for members to follow their own narrative
• Solution designed for post-stroke rehabilitation
The mechanical transmission of the engine cut-off can be achieved by:
• From the pelvis to the thigh (adjacent segments)
• From the pelvis to the leg (distal segments)
• From an external support to any part (manipulandum)
