Design and control of a manipulator for tetraplegicsA concept for the design of a manipulator for tetraplegics must be based on the mutual adaptation of system determining properties of the disabled operator, the manipulator, and the environment. Because the reduced capability of tetraplegics allows control of only three degrees of freedom at a time (instead of the normal fifteen), the structure of the environment must be adjusted. A manipulator is described which includes a three dimensional control stick operated by the lips and mouth.
