Hand/finger extension studies however were mainly suggesting a unilateral and complicated system which also do not offer possibility of active exercise. The proposed PAM (Pneumatic Artificial Muscle) was designed, and additive manufactured as a direct drive hand orthosis and analyzed by FEA (Finite Element Analysis) method. After the production stage, the orthosis was also analyzed by empirical methods and non-parametric models were created based on the results. The analyses were compared and interpreted with graphs and the results were found to be consistent. © 2022 IEEE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessadditive manufacturinganalysispneumatic artificial musclerehabilitation orthosisAdditivesMusclePneumatic actuatorsPneumaticsActive exerciseAnalyseComplicated systemsExperimental and numerical analysisFinger flexionHand fingersHand rehabilitationOrthosesPneumatic artificial muscleRehabilitation orthosis3D printersConference ObjectN/A
