Abstract

We are currently developing an active 4 DOF forearm exoskeleton device that has 2 DOF on the elbow and 2 DOF on the wrist. Human wrist joint is known that it has a complex structure with its center is moving along the motion. We thus developed a soft wrist joint mechanism by introducing parallel springs.
