Requirements for Upper-Limb Rehabilitation with FES and Exoskeleton.

In the last work, we have presented the scope of our project, i.e. use cases of activities of daily living (ADL) for the on-going project a.k.a. iCARE. The project mainly handles the upper-limb rehabilitation in general, however, we have narrowed down the scope and focus on, in terms of the phase of the stroke recovery, the target body area of rehabilitation and the level of muscle function. In this paper, we have drawn the user and system requirements before design the specific functions of the targeted device. First, we have defined the stakeholders for the device and the rehabilitation service scenarios. Next, the user requirements are defined and finally the related system requirements are drawn.
