Kinematic reconstruction of the human arm joints in robot-aided therapies with Hermes robot
Abstract:
This paper presents a kinematic reconstruction algorithm for the variables of the human arm joints in robot-aided neurorehabilitation therapies. The presented algorithm uses the end effector of a rehabilitation robot and an accelerometer placed onto the upper arm to compute accurate values of the human arm chain. The goal of this algorithm is to obtain the joint values of the patient's arm to provide objective information to the therapist about the progress of the patient and to study the effectiveness of these kind of therapies.

Muscles that Move the Arm
The pectoralis major has two origins. Its clavicular head originates on the medial half of the clavicle. In contrast, the sternocostal head originates on the costal cartilages of ribs 1-6, the sternum, and the aponeurosis of the external oblique of the...

Development of the Limb Synovial Joints
The mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes that form the hyaline cartilage, and later the cartilaginous model of the bone. This model further transforms into a bone. This process is known as endochondral ossification.
During development, the limbs...
