The effectiveness of a robotic training device was evaluated in a 24-year-old male, cervical level four, ASIA Impairment Scale D injury. Robotic training of both upper extremities was provided for three hr/day for ten consecutive sessions using the RiceWrist, an electrically-actuated forearm and wrist haptic exoskeleton device that has been designed for rehabilitation applications. Training involved wrist flexion/extension, radial/ulnar deviation and forearm supination/pronation. Therapy sessions were tailored, based on the patient{\textquoteright}s movement capabilities for the wrist and forearm, progressed gradually by increasing number of repetitions and resistance. Outcome measures included the ASIA upper-extremity motor score, grip and pinch strength, the Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function test and the Functional Independence Measure. After the training, improvements were observed in pinch strength, and functional tasks. The data from one subject provides valuable information on the feasibility and effectiveness of robotic-assisted training of forearm and hand functions after incomplete spinal cord injury.

A high-quality haptic interface is typically characterized by low apparent inertia and damping, high structural stiffness, minimal backlash, and absence of mechanical singularities in the workspace. In addition to these specifications, exoskeleton haptic interface design involves consideration of space and weight limitations, workspace requirements, and the kinematic constraints placed on the device by the human arm. These constraints impose conflicting design requirements on the engineer attempting to design an arm exoskeleton. In this paper, the authors present a detailed review of the requirements and constraints that are involved in the design of a high-quality haptic arm exoskeleton. In this context, the design of a five-degree-of-freedom haptic arm exoskeleton for training and rehabilitation in virtual environments is presented. The device is capable of providing kinesthetic feedback to the joints of the lower arm and wrist of the operator, and will be used in future work for robot-assisted rehabilitation and training. Motivation for such applications is based on findings that show robot-assisted physical therapy aids in the rehabilitation process following neurological injuries. As a training tool, the device provides a means to implement flexible, repeatable, and safe training methodologies. \© 2006 IEEE.
