Abstract
Active exercise is one of effective therapy in rehabilitation. In this paper an exoskeleton device for active wrist rehabilitation is proposed. A force model for the wrist mechanism of DULEX-II [7] is presented, and its control system for active exercise is designed based on the force model. In experiments the performance of the force control system was verified. From the results we show a possibility of the exoskeleton device in the active wrist rehabilitation.
