Continuous use of wearable robots can cause skin injuries beneath the cuffs of robots. To prevent such injuries, understanding the contact behavior of the cuff is important. Thus far, this contact behavior has not been studied because of the difficulty involved in measuring the slippage under the cuff. In this study, for the first time, the relative displacement, slippage, and interaction force and...
Falls are one of the main causes of decreased quality of life and activities of daily living among the elderly individuals. Because tripping is the most common cause of falls, some types of recovery motions have been reported after tripping induced by a flat plate or block. Common recovery strategies observed under these conditions included elevating and lowering strategies. Especially, in case that...
Physical assistant robots are expected to be able to assist in our working and daily lives. However, safety problems arise when robots are used in indoor environments with obstacles. The focus of this study was on collision of the side of a robot with an obstacle, and the recovery motion after the collision was measured. A healthy young man participated in this experiment. Two different types of recovery...
