Abstract
The Continuum Robot for Finger Rehabilitation is a multi-jointed wire-actuated apparatus that can be used for practicing individual finger joint movements, as to improve the muscle memory and motor movement of the user’s finger. The specific criteria required by this project includes individual finger segment actuation, finger size adjustability, abduction/adduction finger movement, and fully engaging the user finger muscles for full movement rehabilitation.
