    Area of Science:

    • Robotics
    • Rehabilitation Engineering
    • Human-Robot Interaction

    Background:

    • Physical Human-Robot Interaction (pHRI) involves simultaneous human and robot contributions to motion.
    • Assist-As-Needed (AAN) control strategies are either model-based or purely reactive.
    • Upper limb rehabilitation requires effective and adaptive robotic assistance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel reactive Assist-As-Needed (AAN) control strategy for end-effector robots in upper limb rehabilitation.
    • To dynamically weight robot and human commands based on local performance during interaction.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of this reactive AAN control in a rehabilitation setting.

    Main Methods:

    • A reactive AAN control algorithm was developed for an end-effector robot.
    • Volunteers performed a planar circular trajectory task with visual feedback.
    • Robot and human command contributions were dynamically weighted based on real-time performance.
    • Statistical analysis was used to assess assistance levels and performance metrics.

    Main Results:

    • The reactive AAN control successfully provided assistance as needed, adapting to individual user performance.
    • Performance was balanced across different users and hands, indicating consistent assistance.
    • Key global metrics, including completion time, tracking errors, force exertion, and disagreement, showed significant improvement compared to standalone control methods.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed reactive AAN control is effective for upper limb rehabilitation robots.
    • Dynamic weighting of commands based on local performance enhances rehabilitation outcomes in pHRI.
    • This approach offers a promising alternative to model-based AAN strategies, improving efficiency and user experience.
