Limb movement control device

The device controls the active movement of the limb over a defined movement path using a kinematic chain with a number of interlinked elements (402-407), associated with torque- and position-regulated drives (411-416). The positions and movements of the interlinked elements are detected via associat...

More Information
Summary:The device controls the active movement of the limb over a defined movement path using a kinematic chain with a number of interlinked elements (402-407), associated with torque- and position-regulated drives (411-416). The positions and movements of the interlinked elements are detected via associated sensors, with a force/movement sensor (300) adjacent the limb, the signals from each of the sensors coupled to a processor and a drive control.
