Abstract
Recently, robotic exoskeletons have been developed for rehabilitating patients with stroke or who present motor disorders; Those systems are designed to aid or control the upper and lower limbs in movement and during physical therapy. This paper presents the specifications of design of an upper limb robotic exoskeleton to enhance the neuro-rehabilitation processes of motor disable people. It is presented the hardware required and simulations accomplished.
