Full Description

Restoring motor functions to persons with disabilities has been an exciting yet often frustrating research area. The aim of this book is to explore parallels in sensorimotor integration of rehabilitation devices and human extremities, addressing the important question of how the next generation of rehabilitation devices employing electronic control should evolve. By bringing together experimental physiology, kinesiology, rehabilitation therapy, and computer and electrical engineering, this book discusses a range of issues in natural and artificial control.
