Humans vary the stiffness in their joints depending on tasks and circumstances. For posture control a high joint stiffness is required to withstand perturbations, whereas for force control a low joint stiffness is required. To investigate how humans vary their joint stiffness precisely for moving an arm, a wearable device is needed that can generate small force perturbations at the wrist while measuring the resulting muscular reactions. The majority of the state-of-the-art devices either offer too little versatility or impede the free movement of the arm. Based on a 3-DoF spatial redundant 4-RUU parallel manipulator applied in an inverted way where the original base with actuators has become the moving platform and the original moving platform is attached to the wrist as a bracelet, a versatile, 0.175 kg lightweight, low impedance, and compact wearable device was developed that can generate perturbation forces in X-, Y-, and Z-direction. The design and a prototype of the device are presented with experimental tests showing controlled perturbations in the order of 4 N with frequencies up to 12 Hz.
