About

Arne Jansen-Troy is a leading researcher in the field of rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on developing assistive technologies for upper limb recovery. His most influential contribution is the landmark survey, "A survey on robotic devices for upper limb rehabilitation" (2014), which has amassed over 1,178 citations and serves as a foundational reference for the field. This comprehensive review systematically catalogued emerging robotic systems designed to address the growing shortage of therapists and caregivers for physically disabled individuals, particularly in home settings. Jansen-Troy’s work highlights the critical need for scalable, robotic solutions as the patient population requiring upper extremity rehabilitation continues to rise. By synthesizing technological advancements and clinical applications, he has helped shape the direction of research in wearable exoskeletons and end-effector devices. His contributions are especially vital in anticipating the future demand for automated rehabilitation, making him a key figure in bridging engineering innovation with practical healthcare needs.
