Exoskeleton robots are generally used for rehabilitation and load-carrying applications. Stable and flexible walking with minimal energy consumption of the human body is achieved by the compliant operation of the human joints. Essentially, the stiffness of the human ankle joint varies continuously, while the stiffness of the knee and hip joints remains nearly constant during loading phases of the...
Exoskeletons and wearable robotic systems have advanced substantially over the last decade for gait assistance, rehabilitation and load-carrying purposes. Currently, there are commercially available devices with stiff actuators. However, these actuators cannot adapt to their unpredictable environments. Thus, compliant actuators like series elastic and variable stiffness actuators have been implemented...
Exoskeleton robots are wearable electromechanical structures interacting with human limbs. They are used for extending or replacing human performance in power augmentation and rehabilitation applications. The neuro-muscular system of the human body provides flexible and stable movement with minimum energy consumption by means of the compliant actuation of human joints. Similar to human body, compliant...
Exoskeleton robots are used as assistive limbs for elderly persons, rehabilitation for paralyzed persons or power augmentation purposes for healthy persons. The similarity of the exoskeleton robots and human body neuro-muscular system maximizes the device performance. Human body neuro-muscular system provides a flexible and safe movement capability with minimum energy consumption by varying the stiffness...
