On the kinematic design of anthropomorphic lower limb exoskeletons and their matching movement

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2019
The lower limb exoskeleton is a wearable device for assisting medical rehabilitation. A classical lower limb exoskeleton structures cannot precisely match the kinematics of the wearer’s limbs and joints in movement, so a novel anthropomorphic lower limb ...
