Abstract

This research aims to introduce an assistive physio arm designed to aid those who are paralyzed. This assistive arm may be activated by the patient's career or physician via a specifically designed app. Using the specially designed app, the physician may direct the assistive device to carry out the patient's arm movement. The arm allows the patient to twist, fold, and straighten their arm as directed by the doctor. It is projected that the existing dearth of careers and therapists serving physically challenged individuals in their homes would deteriorate and ultimately turn into a serious problem. Similarly, the number of patients in need of physical therapy for the upper extremities is rising continuously. According to recent studies, robotic tools could be able to help with this issue. There's still need for improvement since many of these technologies are not easily accessible in clinical settings. This project's objective is to compile an overview of robotic upper limb rehabilitation devices, including those that are still in the prototype stage, in order to provide a comprehensive reference regarding existing solutions and to facilitate the development of new and better devices.
