摘要：
A method for calibrating and executing a rehabilitation exercise for a stroke-affected limb of a stroke patient is disclosed, the method comprising the steps of providing a haptic device for an able limb of the stroke patient to manipulate to perform a calibration action to result in a first position of the haptic device, and providing the haptic device for the stroke-affected limb to manipulate to perform the calibration action to result in a second position of the haptic device. The method further comprises the steps of moving the haptic device coupled with the stroke-affected limb from the second position towards the first position until a predetermined counterforce is detected, indicating an extreme position for the stroke-affected limb using the haptic device, and calibrating the haptic device with the extreme position such that during the rehabilitation exercise, the haptic device is prevented from moving beyond the extreme position.
