Design of Lower Limb Exoskeleton
2020This exoskeleton puts forth a unique design of robotic wearable devices that is ready to provide suitable gait rehabilitation to the elder ones or people after sustaining injury or disability. This system helps physical therapists to guide their patients with gait training programs being even far away from them using the prototype.

Running With an Elastic Lower Limb Exoskeleton
Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 2016Although there have been many lower limb robotic exoskeletons that have been tested for human walking, few devices have been tested for assisting running. It is possible that a pseudo-passive elastic exoskeleton could benefit human running without the addition of electrical motors due to the spring-like behavior of the human leg.

Development of Lower Limb Exoskeleton Robot
2020 12th International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks and Digital Signal Processing (CSNDSP), 2020This paper is based on the mass of the lower extremity section to estimate the mass of the sole, calf and thigh. The exoskeleton robot adjusts the motor output torque according to the mass of each lower extremity section of different users. It is to adjust the mass of the lower limbs to zero moment point movement, so that the exoskeleton robot and the ...

Exoskeletons for Lower Limb Applications: A Review
2020Exoskeletons are assistive devices that play a significant role in the lives of people who have partially or completely lost the functions of their limbs. These robotic devices can be used in rehabilitation, assistance locomotion or augmentation, and significant developments were observed in the last few years in this field.

Real-Time Modeling for Lower Limb Exoskeletons
2016Real-time electromyography (EMG) driven musculoskeletal (NMS) modeling estimates internal body biomechanical parameters and motor intentions. This is central for understanding the dynamics of user-exoskeleton interaction and for developing closed-loop user-exoskeleton interfaces that are intuitive and effective in promoting neuroplasticity.

On active lower limb exoskeletons actuators
2008 5th International Symposium on Mechatronics and Its Applications, 2008Carrying a load increases the metabolic costs of movement: exoskeletons are devices developed primarily to minimize the operatorpsilas energetic contribution for the action. The rise of the exoskeletons research can be set in the second half of the past century.

Transparent Mode for Lower Limb Exoskeleton
2016In this paper a method to reduce the mechanical impedance of the joints of a lower limb exoskeleton is presented. When user is in charge of the motion the exoskeleton mimic its movements. Gravity, Friction and Interaction Force compensators are designed in order to reduce the force necessary to move the exoskeleton joints.

Developing safe fall strategies for lower limb exoskeletons
2017 International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR), 2017One of the main challenges in the use of a powered lower limb exoskeleton (LLE) is to ensure that balance is maintained throughout the operation of the device. Since no control strategy has yet been implemented that prevents falls in the case of a loss of balance, head or other serious injuries may occur during independent use of LLEs in the event of a
