Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability in the world. It causes chronic deficits, such as hemiparesis, especially prevalent in the distal upper extremities. An electro-mechanically driven hand orthosis has been developed to assess the potential therapeutic use of such devices in rehabilitating hand function. A small Direct Current (DC) brushed motor is used as the main actuator, and a cable-driven glove connected to the motor shaft is the central component of the device. The orthosis control is achieved through a force feedback loop using a miniature load cell attached in series to the cable and control module. The later, generates Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) and direction signals required to drive the motor. The speed is determ...
