Vertical 1-DOF module using linear electromechanical technology. This commercial version of MIT’s prototype module can be operated in standalone fashion or integrated with the planar module to allow spatial movements. Note that in the standalone mode it can be operated at any angle relative to the horizontal and vertical planes with adjustable handle positions. The left photo demonstrates an example of subject positioning during therapy aimed at neurological recovery. The right photo demonstrates an example of subject positioning during therapy aimed at orthopedic recovery following rotator cuff surgery (Courtesy Baltimore Veterans Administration Medical Center).
