Abstract: A new version of the L-CADEL elbow joint assisting device is presented as version v5. The design is revised based on the experience of previous versions and on the requirements that consider the application for physical exercise for the elderly people at home. A laboratory prototype has been created with lightweight, portable and easy-to-use functionality that is confirmed by lab test results. A web interface was developed to manage the device as well as to acquire and elaborate data. Results of lab tests are discussed to validate the design feasibility and to characterize the operation performance for future clinical assessments.
