    Area of Science:

    • Robotics
    • Biomechanics
    • Rehabilitation Engineering

    Background:

    • Robotic exoskeletons offer potential for personalized physical therapy.
    • Existing designs may not adequately address specific patient task requirements.
    • A systematic approach is needed to tailor exoskeleton design to therapeutic goals.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a multi-stage design framework for task-specific robotic exoskeletons.
    • To enable the development of exoskeletons for individualized physical therapy exercises.
    • To optimize exoskeleton design based on required limb poses and task criteria.

    Main Methods:

    • A systematic design framework based on task space definition (limb poses).
    • Incorporation of motion capture for defining task spaces.
    • Optimization to maximize coverage of desired poses while meeting task constraints.
    • Case study involving the design of two shoulder exoskeleton variations.

    Main Results:

    • The framework was applied to design two shoulder exoskeleton prototypes for specific upper limb activities.
    • Prototypes were constructed based on the framework's design outcomes.
    • Evaluation demonstrated the suitability of the developed exoskeletons for their intended therapeutic tasks.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented framework provides a systematic method for designing task-specific robotic exoskeletons.
    • This approach facilitates the creation of tailored solutions for physical therapy and rehabilitation.
    • The developed prototypes show promise for effective use in clinical settings.
