Analysis of human hand kinematics: reaching upward movement

Reaching movement is one of the important training for stroke patient to recover the impairment arm as this movement is critical for activities of daily living. A studied conducted to investigate the minimal requirement that a rehabilitation robot should have in order to train reaching movement in u...
