Hassist improves hand rehabilitation with active power assistance and passive control training. Using electromyographic (EMG) signals, it recognises hand motions to actuate cables and assist movement. EMG evaluates rehabilitation levels, moving the exoskeleton through preset training modes. A cable-driven structure reduces weight, and a lever structure enhances force transmission to the fingertips with palm pressure sensors dynamically controlling output force.
