LINarm++: an affordable and advanced linear device for arm rehabilitation

The paper presents a multisensory and multimodal device for neuromuscular rehabilitation of the upper limb. The system integrates a variable-stiffness rehabilitation device, a wearable neuromuscular electrical stimulation system, a virtual rehabilitation environment, a low-cost unobtrusive sensory system and a patient model for adapting training task parameters. It monitors the user behaviour and its evolution throughout the entire training period. The system enables a multimodal training of patients, integrating features currently unavailable in single off-the-shelf devices for upper-limb rehabilitation.
