In the coming advanced age society, an innovative technology to assist the activities of daily living of elderly and disabled people and the heavy work in nursing is desired. A wearable power assist robot is one of effective approaches as such a technology, which is equipped to the human body to assist the muscular force. Since this kind of robot directly acts on the human body, it should be friendly...
We focus on the rehabilitation of human wrist joint whose motion is indispensable in our day-life. According to a Japan physical therapy white paper in 2014, there are currently about 93,000 of physiotherapist (hereinafter P.T.). The total number of P.T. has been increasing comparing before but skill improvement of P.T. is still important issue. Hearing from P.T., rookie P.T. are doing their wrist...
Many kinds of power assist device have been developed. By using the exoskeleton, a high generated torque actuator can be introduced. An assistance performance of these devices becomes high. On the other hand, a realization of exoskeleton which has the same D.O.F of a human is not easy from considerations about a size and strength of device. The purpose of this study is to develop power assist device...
