Locomotion mode identification is essential for the control of a robotic rehabilitation exoskeletons. This paper proposes an online support vector machine (SVM) optimized by particle swarm optimization (PSO) to identify different locomotion modes realize smooth and automatic transition. A PSO algorithm used obtain optimal parameters SVM better overall performance. Signals measured foot pressure sensors integrated in insoles wearable shoes MEMS-based attitude heading reference systems (AHRS)...
In the field of rehabilitation engineering, wearable robots for upper limbs tend to help powerless arms patients smoothly complete daily activities. Compared with traditional rigid exoskeleton, soft exosuit takes advantage high movement flexibility and relatively compact structure so that it could be a more adaptive compliant alternative elder disabled. this study, novel dual-arm is proposed provide active assistance multiple joints through bidirectional cable-driven modules. Several Bowden...
Cable-driven exosuits have the advantages of being lightweight, compact, and well-adapted due to avoiding extensive usage rigid structures transmit power. However, applying too many flexible materials into system will cause some problems such as insufficient stiffness, easy deformation, non-negligible friction, thus increasing difficulty synergistic control between human cable-driven exosuit. In this paper, we attempt exosuit effectively reliably provide assistance for elbow, by analyzing...
In this paper, the effects of rigid-flexible coupling knees on performance exoskeleton developed by us for power assist are mainly concerned. The work was conducted through a series numerical simulation comparisons between models and pure rigid structure under different loads. Before dynamic analysis, flat walking gait plan in sagittal plane designed exoskeleton, model novel knee verified comparing with experimental result. Compared knees, results show that exert mixed influence dynamics Via...
