Abstract
The goal of this project is to develop an upper limb exoskeletal orthosis destinated to help disabled population to achieve arm movements. This orthosis is principally designed for people suffering from myopathy and muscle degeneration. Such patients cannot generate enough force to move alone their arm. This poster presents a new approach to control the exoskeleton using pressure sensors.
