Overview of Tools of the Rehabilitation
BioengineerA. Technical Tools of the Clinical Rehabilitation
Engineer (the "added value")
- Biomechanics Prowess (statics,
solids, dynamics, tissue mechanics)
- Electronics/Mechatronics
(circuits, devices, sensors, motors, safety)
- Computer Proficiency
(as user/prescriber)
- human-computer
interfaces
- CAD and other
computer-aided engineering tools
- Conceptual
Systems Framework (Musculoskeletal/Neuromotor)
- Design Capabilities (methodology
... teaming ... analysis/synthesis ... iterative process)
