We have developed a robotic arm for persons with upper-limb disabilities(RAPUDA), which can be controlled by users with various control interfaces. In order to popularize such an assistive robotic arm, RAPUDA is developed focusing on its safety and price especially. Four subjects execute peg insertion tasks with RAPUDA to verify its utility. In this paper, the experimental results of operability evaluation by target users are presented.
