Due to the actuation system, the proposed exoskeleton presents a light weight , low noise and everything in a simple design structure. The number of actuators and the preliminary designed was calculated after a biomechanical simulation of the human body with a specific cat egory of patients.7application/pdfengAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 EspañaExoskeletonsShape Memory AlloysRehabilitationconference paperFisioterapiaMedicinaRobótica e Informática Industrialopen access3744RoboCity16, Robots for Citizens: Open Conference on Future Trends in RoboticsCC/0000025032
