The recent development of Wearable Exoskeletons has stressed their effectiveness in assisting humans for rehabilitation and augmentation purposes. These devices interact with the user, therefore actuators power transmission mechanisms are fundamental improving physical Human-Robot Interaction (pHRI). enhanced advancement 3D-printing technology as a valuable approach creating light efficient gearboxes allows exploring multiple reducers’ designs. However, to authors’ knowledge, only sporadic...
Despite the automatization of many industrial and logistics processes, human workers are still often involved in manual handling loads. These activities lead to work-related disorders that reduce quality life productivity aged workers. A biomechanical analysis such is basis for a detailed estimation overload, thus enabling focused prevention actions. Thanks wearable sensor networks, it now possible analyze biomechanics by an inverse dynamics approach ecological conditions. The purposes this...
Lower Limb Exoskeletons (LLEs) are wearable robots that provide mechanical power to the user. Human-exoskeleton (HE) connections must preserve user's natural behavior during interaction, avoiding undesired forces. Therefore, numerous works focus on their minimization. Given inherent complications of repeatedly prototyping and experimentally testing a device, modeling exoskeleton its physical interaction with user emerges as valuable approach for assessing design effects. This paper proposes...
