Design of a new human-centered rehabilitation machine
Proceedings of the 9th ACM International Conference on PErvasive …, 2016•dl.acm.org
This paper presents a new kind of rehabilitation machine. While the commercially available
ones are machine-centered, that is, people have to adapt themselves to the machines to do
exercises; the structure and characteristics of the one shown in this paper are easily to be
adjusted to suit the need for people with lower-limb injuries. So, it is human centered. The
consideration for the design of machine structure is investigated from the fields of
ergonomics and rehabilitation. A proto type of half of the machine for one leg was designed …

While the commercially available ones are machine-centered, that is, people have to adapt themselves to the machines to do exercises; the structure and characteristics of the one shown in this paper are easily to be adjusted to suit the need for people with lower-limb injuries. So, it is human centered. The consideration for the design of machine structure is investigated from the fields of ergonomics and rehabilitation. A proto type of half of the machine for one leg was designed and built. And some results of experimental test are presented.
