- Development of a robotic device for post-stroke home tele-rehabilitation(Sage publications, 2018) Díaz, I. (Iñaki); Catalán, J.M. (José M.); Badesa, F.J. (Francisco Javier); Justo, X. (Xabier); García-Aracil, N. (Nicolás); Lledo, L.D. (Luis Daniel); Ugartemendia-Etxarri, A. (Axier); Díez, J. (Jorge); Gil, J.J. (Jorge Juan)This work deals with the complex mechanical design task of converting a large pneumatic rehabilitation robot into an electric and compact system for in-home post-stroke therapies without losing performance. It presents the new HomeRehab robot that supports rehabilitation therapies in three dimensions with an adaptive controller that optimizes patient recovery. A preliminary usability test is also conducted to show that its performance resembles that found in RoboTherapist 2D commercial system designed for hospitals. The mechanical design of a novel and smart twodimensional force sensor at the end-effector is also described.
