This paper presents a cooperative control algorithm for a paraplegic patient to walk stably as requested. The algorithm generates stable motions of a lower limb for a paraplegic walk, receiving patient's preference related to his/her movement such as stand-to-sit and sit-to-stand transfers, walking and going up and down stairs. An exoskeletal walking support system assists motions of patient's lower...
This paper describes a 3-D biped walking over rough terrain. The robot is modeled as the special 3-D inverted pendulum that can change the length. The dynamics of the 3-D inverted pendulum is modeled as 2-D autonomous system by applying the Passive Dynamic Autonomous Control (PDAC) that is based on the assumption of point-contact of the robot foot and the virtual holonomic constraint as to robot joints...
This paper introduces a cooperative control algorithm that designs a stable biped walk satisfying a wearer's intention relating to his/her walk such as a timings to start and stop walking, walking speed and waking direction. Using this algorithm an exoskeletal walking support system could help a paraplegia patient walking comfortablly. At first, a pair of gloves with several DOFs is developed to convey...
This paper proposes a three-dimensional biped dynamic walking algorithm based on passive dynamic autonomous control (PDAC) which is previously proposed. The robot dynamics is modeled as an autonomous system of a three-dimensional inverted pendulum by applying the PDAC concept that is based on the assumption of point contact of the robot foot and the virtual constraint as to robot joints. Due to autonomy,...
This paper proposes a 3-D biped dynamic walking algorithm based on passive dynamic autonomous control (PDAC). The robot dynamics is modeled as an autonomous system of a 3-D inverted pendulum by applying the PDAC concept that is based on the assumption of point contact of the robot foot and the virtual constraint as to robot joints. Due to autonomy, there are two conservative quantities named ldquoPDAC...
This paper introduces a vertical ladder climbing of the humanoid robot only by the posture control without any external sensors. The humanoid robot does not have any special structure for fixing the body to the ladder. The robot maintains the body on the ladder by its grippers like human does. As a problem of this locomotion, a free gripper position of the climbing robot is not controllable because...
