Abstract
This project presents the process of designing and manufacturing a wearable tone-cancelling
medical device.
When strokes happen half of the body can remain paralyzed and some of the arm muscles
become contracted. The tone-cancelling device creates a specified torque-angle profile for a
dynamic wrist that cancels the effects of spasticity in the wrist of stroke survivors. The project
involves a mechanical study of the relative movement of the hand and the arm through the
wrist and all the forces acting in the different points of the device.
Moreover this device has been personalized to a specific person. The hand and arm of the
author of the project has been scanned with 3D technology in order to adjust the device to
him.
Finally an economic analysis of the project has been done including all the expenses of the
project.
