Abstract

Haroon Batra*, Laurel Blau and Davina Hoffmann

The growing use of automated devices in neuro-recovery treatments necessitates the availability of lightweight, simple-to-use, smart, and adaptable frameworks. RobHand was designed with these goals in mind. It is a hand exoskeleton that is especially suitable for individuals who have finger spasticity since it is simple to insert and allows both bending and expansion of the fingers from an underactuated position. The primary attributes, mechanical plan, and turn of events, as well as approval of the kinematic model of the device, are introduced in this work, which has been completed in accordance with the proposals of the new IEC 80601-2-78 norm, which formalises the concept of RACA (Recovery, Evaluation, Remuneration, Easing) robot and addresses parts of productivity and wellbeing.
