Design of a passive wearable device using an optimized mechanical metamaterial for mirror therapy

Design of a passive wearable device using an optimized mechanical metamaterial for mirror therapy

Mirror Therapy (MT) is an effective therapeutic method used in the rehabilitation of hemiplegics. The effectiveness of this method is improved by employing a bi-modal approach which requires the synchronous movement of the affected and unaffected arm. For this purpose, we describe the design of a we...
