A project “Interactive Intention-driven Upper Limb Training Robotic System” led by HTI and supported by IC was awarded the Technology Transfer Award in PTeC’s Outstanding Professional Services Awards 2010. The IC supported PolyU’s Department of Health Technology and Informatics (HTI) to develop a novel design of hand-functions training robotic system for stroke patients to actively recover their hand functions. The system detects the intention of hand opening or hand closing from the stroke patient using his/her muscle signals measured by surface electromyography (EMG) from the hemiplegic side. The sophisticated device is made up of an embedded controller and a robotic … Continue reading →
