The Armotion™
2.1
General
The Armotion is an innovative robotic solution in the treatment of severe and moderate
neurological and orthopaedic dysfunction of the upper extremity.
The Armotion`s unique force feedback and force multiplier features detect and react on patient
movements, maximizing the effect of each therapy session. The combined recording of kinematic
(speed and direction) and dynamic (force interaction by the patient) parameters allow a precise
quantitative evaluation and constant monitoring of patient progress. The patient’s cognitive
ability is enhanced by multiple functional ADL-related game types and a unique active assistive
therapy option.
The substantial reduction in size, its portable and compact design and state of the art technology
makes the Armotion an easy to use device for the rehabilitation of the upper extremities. The
wireless connection to the computer, the rechargeable batteries and the short and simple setup
and quick start of therapy further contribute to an optimized allocation of the hospitals resources
on a daily routine.
The Armotion can easily be employed both in the treatment of severe and moderate neurological
dysfunctions (i.e. post stroke recovery) as well as in the rehabilitation of orthopaedic conditions.
