When the robotic exoskeleton is used for gait rehabilitation, the robot should recognize the intention of patients before moving. We can consider recognition of intentions for the robot as recognition of a time (when the patient wants to move) and a behavior (what the patient wants to do). In this paper, the intent-detection method consisting of a gait phase recognizer and a gait pattern generator...
We propose an algorithm used to obtain the information on stride length, height difference, and direction based on user's intent during walking. For exoskeleton robots used to assist paraplegic patients' walking, this information is used to generate gait patterns by themselves in on-line. To obtain this information, we attach an inertial measurement unit(IMU) on crutches and apply an extended kalman...
A robotic orthosis has been developed for spinal cord injury patients which consists of an exoskeleton robotic suit with actuators at the hip and knee joints. In this article, a presentation is made on how to generate a gait pattern to control the robotic orthosis. First, the features needed to characterize a gait pattern are defined, and then a description is given of how to extract features from...
We propose a new classification algorithm, variance considered machine (VCM), by modifying optimal hyperplanes of the support vector machine (SVM). The SVM is a good method to calculate a slope of optimal hyperplanes with maximal margin. However, this algorithm neglects to consider variances and prior probabilities of the data. It can increase probabilities of error. To solve this problem, the VCM...
In the moving of the mobile robot, the mobile robot acquires a map of its environment while simultaneously localizing itself relative to the map. Simultaneous localization ad mapping (SLAM) problems arise when the robot does not have access to a map of the environment, nor does it know its own pose. In this paper, we study the SLAM of mobile robot in the indoor environment with Digital Magnetic Compass...
