Abstract

The knowledge of the trunk posture of patients with reduced mobility during rehabilitation therapies, allows better analysis of their recovery state and decrease the recovery times. However, most of upper limb rehabilitation robots are not capable to measure the posture of the trunk. In view of this situation, this work presents an innovate rehabilitation software that allows to therapist to know trunk and affected limb postures of the patient and estimate the percentage of movement performed with the trunk. The proposed software has been implemented in the UHP upper limb rehabilitation robot. Different experimental tests have been carried out with a group of 25 healthy people to demonstrate the validity of the approach. The results show that the proposed software performs correctly when measuring trunk movement.
