摘要
An objective of Biomechatronics consists in developing intelligent systems for medical purposes. Some of these belong to Rehabilitation Engineering, designed for substituting or assisting lost or diminished sensorial and/or locomotor functions. In this paper an orthotic system for upper limb is proposed, designed, developed and tested. Its role is to assist the flexion-extension of the fingers index and middle, for elementary gripping operations, as well as the pronation-supination of the forearm.
