Adaptive Algorithms as Control Strategies of Smart Upper Limb Orthosis: A Protocol for a Systematic Scoping Review.

Adaptive algorithms for controlling orthosis emerged to overcome significant problems with automatic biosignal classification and personalized rehabilitation. Smart orthoses are evolving fast and need a better human-machine interaction performance since biosignals, feedback, and motor control dynamically change and must be adaptive. This manuscript outlines a scoping review protocol to systematically review the smart upper limb (UL) orthoses based on adaptive algorithms and feasibility tests.
