Abstract
This paper presents a cable-driven assisting device, which has been designed and built at LARM in Cassino. Experimental tests are presented as the basis for design improvements aiming to achieve a portable user-oriented solution of the cable-driven assisting device for applications in human upper limb exercising and rehabilitation. Experimental tests are reported to show the engineering feasibility and soundness of the proposed solutions.
