Abstract :
With increasing demands for rehabilitation, the need for physical therapy robots is also increasing. This paper proposes the construction of a rehabilitation database inspired with medical cloud technologies. We discuss the possibility of establishing a new validation methodology by generating a database based on the data collected using rehabilitation equipment. In this research, data was obtained by rehabilitation equipment and statistical processing was applied to the data to investigate an example of a validation method. The experimental results suggest that improvement of tracking property of subjects is much larger than improvement of maneuverability.
