About

Mohammad Rahman is a leading figure in rehabilitation robotics, with his research dedicated to restoring upper limb function for individuals with physical disabilities. His most impactful contribution is the development of the **ETS-MARSE**, a whole-arm wearable robotic exoskeleton with seven degrees of freedom. This pioneering work, detailed in his highly cited 2014 paper (190 citations), was designed to both assist with daily movements and deliver effective rehabilitation therapy. Rahman’s work extends to home-based solutions, as demonstrated by the **FlexoHand**, a hybrid exoskeleton for portable hand rehabilitation, addressing patient dropouts due to travel constraints. His research also delves into control systems, implementing nonlinear strategies like sliding mode control to ensure precise, active assistive therapy. By combining robust hardware design with sophisticated control algorithms, Rahman has significantly advanced the practicality and accessibility of robotic rehabilitation, making a tangible impact on the field of assistive technology.
