Analysis of Human-Machine Cooperative Robot and haptic interaction for stroke rehabilitation

Many kinds of actuator-based haptic robots have been developed and utilized in rehabilitation to improve and strengthen stroke patient’s motor capability. Now a new concept of HMCR (humanMachine Cooperative Robot) is proposed in this article, which works with the joint efforts of human user and the machine or neither respectively. However, these systems seem to be not qualitative currently. Therefore, this paper presents a quantitative analysis on the statics of the haptic robot system.
