Embodiments in accordance with the present disclosure provide an apparatus that facilitates education and learning through tactile sensory demonstration and action. The apparatus includes a first part and a second part attached to the first part. The first part may be worn by a guide, while the second part may be worn by a child or a student undergoing training. The apparatus allows the guide to control the movements of the child or the student.

A hand anti-stress and or rehabilitation device that has two support bases where a metal rod stands with rounded rotating parts incorporating magnets that are fixed, or have a mobile union that allows to exert pressure on them, is disclosed. Optionally, it has, coupled fixed or dismountable, at each of the rod ends, a spring, or similar, at the distal end thereof, a lateral gripping part with four circular recesses to insert the fingers.

A rehabilitation glove based on a bidirectional driver of a honeycomb imitating structure, including five bidirectional drivers and a cotton glove. The drivers are fixed to a back of the glove through hook and loop fasteners. Each driver includes a hollow buckling air bag in a continuous bent state, a middle guide layer in a continuous bent state and a hollow stretching air bag. The buckling air bag and the middle guide layer are symmetrically arranged, and the stretching air bag in a straightened state is arranged below the middle guide layer. A novel bidirectional driver of a honeycomb imitating structure is provided, which may provide a patient with rehabilitation training in two degrees of freedom: buckling and stretching. A control algorithm of the bidirectional driver is further provided to perform force control output for the driver, which may better help the patient recover hand functions.

A system for moving or assisting in movement of a body part of a subject, as well as a rehabilitation system including such a movement assistance system, includes a body part interface configured to be secured to the body part, and a motor-actuated assembly connected to the body part interface to move the body part interface to cause flexion or extension movement of the body part. A force sensing module is configured to measure forces applied between the body part interface and the motor-actuated assembly to ascertain at least one of volitional flexion and volitional extension movement of the body part by the subject, among other functions that may be implemented in movement assistance and rehabilitation systems using the disclosed force sensing module designs.

Rehabilitating an impaired body part of a subject such as a stroke patient includes systems, devices, and methods using an orthosis system configured to attach to the impaired body part and to move or assist in movement of the impaired body part. A control system is configured to operate the orthosis system in a mode in which the orthosis system first allows the subject to move volitionally or attempt to move volitionally the impaired body part in a predefined motion and then operates to move or assist in the predefined motion of the impaired body part. Additional modes of operation include a brain computer interface mode of operation and a mode in which the orthosis system operates in a continuous passive mode of operation comprising a plurality of repetitions of an exercise to move the impaired body part.

Disclosed is a rehabilitation training apparatus. The rehabilitation training apparatus includes a pair of first tracks formed parallel to each other along first axis, a second track disposed on the pair of first tracks, and moving along the first axis, and formed along second axis, a hand holder disposed on the second track, and moving along the second track, and on which at least one of hand and arm of a user is held, a stopper for a track disposed on the pair of first tracks for limiting a movement range of the second track, and a stopper for a holder disposed on the second track for limiting a movement range of the second pair of first tracks, wherein the first axis and the second axis are disposed with an inclination.

A comprehensive system for treatment of wrist joint proprioception. The system includes a manipulandum unit and a controller. The unit includes a base, a handle, a linkage assembly, and motors. The base supports a subject's forearm, and the handle is gripped by the palm. The linkage assembly connects the handle to the base, and establishes three DOFs. The motors are operatively connected to the linkage assembly. The controller is programmed to actuate, and receive feedback information from, each of the plurality of motors. Further, the controller is programmed to perform wrist proprioception assessment operations by actuating the plurality of motors to effectuate movement of the handle relative to the base in a prescribed manner indicative of position motion sense acuity as an objective measure of wrist proprioception functioning. The controller is optionally further programmed to perform rehabilitation training via controlled operation of the unit and a virtually reality environment.

A hemiplegic forearm function recovery training device includes a forearm mounting part (2) on which a forearm (S) is to be mounted. The forearm mounting part (2) includes a mounting body (20), an inner frame portion (2B), an outer frame portion (2A), and a control part. The mounting body (20) has a forearm fixing portion (22) on which the forearm (S) is mounted and a gripping mechanism (23) capable of being gripped by a hand of the forearm (S). The inner frame portion (2B) is fitted to the mounting body (20) and is rotatable around the forearm (S). The outer frame portion (2A) guides the inner frame portion (2B) in a rotation direction thereof. The control part performs a series of controls that repeatedly causes normal rotation, stop, reverse rotation, and stop of the inner frame portion (2B) while acquiring rotation angle information of the inner frame portion (2B). In the normal rotation the control part controls angular velocity or acceleration of the inner frame portion (2B) to stimulate a training target muscle of the forearm (S) and in the reverse rotation the control part provides resistance to the inner frame portion (2B) to sustain stimulation to the training target muscle to maintain muscle tone.
