EMG-controlled hand exoskeleton for assistance and rehabilitation in motor-impaired patients

Research partner:

EPFL Translational Neural Engineering Lab – Development of neurotechnologies to restore sensorimotor function in people affected by disabilities

Implementation partner:

Emovo Care SA– Affordable medical devices to bring motor therapy and assistance directly at home

Project description:

This project will develop a hand exoskeleton directly controlled by non-invasive muscular signals (EMG), to support people with motor-impairments (e.g. after stroke or orthopedic injuries), during therapy and in activities of daily living.
