FES with Multi-array electrodes can stimulate different muscles and be used for various functional movements.
In the video the fingers/wrist movements are not voluntary, indeed, we control the hand by FES.
In the video the grasping of the object is not voluntary, in fact, we control the hand by FES.
Here we control the wrist without the person's intention.
In ITR, we also work on Hybrid Exoskeleton (combination of Exoskeleton and FES) for Rehabilitation and Activity of Daily Living (ADL), so both Exoskeleton and FES help a person to move his/her upper limb (hand, wrist, elbow, ...). In video you can see both Wrist Robt (Exoskeleton) and FES.
