What are upper extremity devices?

Robotic arms and powered arm supports are devices that mount onto power wheelchairs and assist with arm and hand movement such as gripping a utensil, picking up a drink, opening a door and putting on glasses.  

While robotic arms and powered arm supports are both designed to restore mobility and independence to people with limited arm and hand movement or those who have little or no arm or shoulder strength, these assistive devices work a little differently.
