Abstract

Many motor disorders can cause chronic disabilities that limit the quality of life of people who suffer from them. Rehabilitation robotics has proven to be effective in combination with conventional therapy, although many patients suffering from these conditions are often excluded from such therapies. The SPLASH project aims to investigate a new rehabilitation paradigm combining robotic rehabilitation and aquatic therapy, which has led to the development of new aquatic hybrid actuators. The NOHA project is further studying these systems to develop a proof of concept. This paper summarizes the design process of an aquatic hybrid actuator, with particular reference to its application in an upper-limb robotic device. First, the equations that model the behavior of the system are presented. Next, the design requirements are established, a conceptual design is presented and the components to be used are selected. Finally, lines of future work in the development of this device are proposed.
