Fatigue Analysis for Upper Limb Rehabilitation Using Programmable Arm Robot

Abstract

Fatigue can affects and happen to anyone. The sensibility of a fatigue is like feeling consistent with fatigued or tired. The upper limb spasticity is when arm cannot move a usual and affects a muscles stiff and flexed. There have a robot that can assist a rehabilitation motion for stroke/stiffness/flexed/spasticity person. This research and project will measure and analyze the spasticity muscle at upper limb by using a programmable robot. Majority human muscle will contracted due too long or may too strong during lift a load. Now, there is no creation rehabilitation robot that can be multiple joint/axis because the existing just using one axis. Then, this research and project to propose the improvement of spasticity using the programmable robot
