Dynamic Analysis and Simulation of Arm Trainer

Briefly the project is to design an effective and low cost arm trainer that can be used by a stroke survivor at home. Recent research suggests that stroke survivors can recover significant use of their arms by performing repetitive motor function exercises over a period of time. These days, devic...
