Abstract :
Summary form only given. Large-scale neurorehabilitation robots require sophisticated control and safety systems. We describe the design and testing of a controller for a two-joint manipulandum for neurorehabilitation research. Design requirements and implementation considerations are highlighted. Procedures for testing and validating the system are also described.
