  • Abstract
    Aiming at the reduction of therapist burden in rehabilitation exercises, the authors have developed a technology to make a 6-DOF manipulator be an assistive worker in rehabilitation exercises. The paper described some key issues for the system: (1) methods to estimate physical parameters were explained, (2) a method to implement the four kinds of kinesitherapy exercises.
