    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Rehabilitation Technology
    • Robotics

    Background:

    • Stroke survivors often experience impaired hand function, necessitating effective rehabilitation tools.
    • Exoskeletons offer a promising approach for repetitive, intensive hand function training.
    • Current hand exoskeletons face challenges in customization, assembly, and precise force control.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the mechanical design, actuation, and sensing of a novel 3D-printed hand exoskeleton.
    • To enable patient-specific adaptation and reduce joint misalignment through integrated design.
    • To achieve accurate joint angle sensing and precise force control for effective rehabilitation.

    Main Methods:

    • A one-piece 3D-printed exoskeleton frame incorporating joints to minimize assembly time and allow parametric sizing.
    • Hall effect sensors integrated with magnets in the joints for precise joint angle measurement (average accuracy of 1.25°).
    • Motor-driven tendon system for force transmission, with armature current measurement (via shunt) and a custom current-limiter circuit for force control.

    Main Results:

    • The 3D-printing approach allows for patient-specific adaptation and reduces joint misalignment.
    • Hall effect sensors provide accurate joint angle measurements.
    • Preliminary experiments demonstrate high linearity and accuracy in force control (RMSE of 0.5937 N).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed 3D-printed hand exoskeleton is a viable tool for stroke rehabilitation.
    • The integrated design, sensing, and actuation enable precise and customizable hand function training.
    • This technology has the potential to improve recovery outcomes for stroke patients with hand impairments.
