Popis: BLUE SABINO is an NSF-funded collaborative project between researchers at the University of Idaho, UCLA, and St. Luke’s Rehabilitation Institute. The goal of the project is to develop a BiLateral Upper-extremity Exoskeleton for Simultaneous Assessment of Biomechanical and Neuromuscular Output (BLUE SABINO). The project combines a dual-arm exoskeleton system with off-the-shelf electromyographic (EMG) and electroencephalographic (EEG) measurement equipment. A preliminary CAD model, featuring innovative new designs and components adapted from several previous systems, has been developed to address the needs of therapists and patients in post-stroke neurological assessment.
