  abstract = {Nearly 80 million people in the world deal with medical conditions that cause involuntary periodic movements known as tremors. Wearable soft robotic devices offer a potential solution for actively suppressing these tremors. However, existing prototypes face limitations in actuation performance and complex testing procedures. We present a comprehensive approach for the rapid evaluation of emerging wearable tremor-suppression technologies. This method combines reproducing patient-recorded tremor episodes and measuring tremor suppression in a robotic platform, termed a "mechanical patient", with validation of the achieved suppression performance of soft actuators via biomechanical modeling, thereby avoiding time-consuming clinical testing in the early stages of development. Using this approach, we highlight that an antagonistic pair of slim and lightweight electrohydraulic actuators can effectively …},
