Abstract: 
Human movement is achieved by a coordinated mechanical interaction between bones, muscles, ligaments, and joints within the musculoskeletal system under the control of the nervous system. Damage or malfunction of any of these components may cause a movement disorder, whose type and extent of impact are described according to the nature and location of the injury.
This webinar aims at raising the awareness about physical disabilities, and their impact on life activities, while highlighting the role of assistive technology in helping people with physical disabilities to overcome some of the challenges they face. Methods that innovators are researching and developing to support people with physical disabilities will be illustrated as well as relevant assistive technologies.
