© Springer International Publishing AG 2017. Robotic Neuro Rehabilitation has been proved to be effective for motor recovery and less demanding for therapists. During a therapy, the aim of the task is to maximize the patient’s effort with respect to his/her clinical status and motor abilities, improving at the same time his/her impaired movements. In this paper, we propose a framework for performance evaluation of post-stroke subjects able to provide assistance-as-needed based on their motor skills during a therapy session with an upper-limb robotic exoskeleton.
