The central nervous system (CNS) is able to control a very high number of degrees of freedom to perform complex movements of both upper and lower limbs. However, what strategies the CNS adopts to perform complex tasks are not completely clear and are sti...

The contradiction between self-weight and load capacity of a power-assisted upper-limb exoskeleton for material hanging is unresolved. In this paper, a non-anthropomorphic 3-degree of freedom (DOF) upper-limb exoskeleton with an internally rotated elbow ...
