• Coordination arm, trunk and head movement important in activities of daily living
• Movement is influenced by:– Weakening of the muscles– Development of deformations (like scoliosis)– Compensatory strategies
Problem outline
Compensation Scoliosis

General description of the project
Problem formulation:
People with flaccid or spastic paresis are unable to move due to muscular
weakness
Solution:
Develop an assistive device that will enable the user to perform daily tasks

Future Concept
Features:• Optimal functional support
for trunk and head• Adaptibility along with
fatigue, age and disease progression
• Comfortness, possibility of wearing under clothes
