In this paper we introduce an adaptive control scheme for robots with elastic joints (in particular for the DLR medical robot) in order to increase the positioning accuracy and the performance of control with respect to uncertainties of the parameters of the robot dynamics. In order to design control and analyze system stability a static friction model is applied which describes Coulomb, viscose and...
The use of robotic assistive devices and exoskeletons to supply movement therapy for the rehabilitation of patients following variety of diseases is noticeably growing presently. In order to provide consistent therapy as well as walking assistance, we are developing a wearable lower-limb exoskeleton robot with an adaptive foot device for better walking ability and enhanced stability. In this paper,...
A non-linear iterative learning control approach is developed for application to stroke rehabilitation. The subject is seated in a robotic workstation and electrical stimulation is applied to their triceps muscle to assist the tracking of trajectories in a horizontal plane. In addition to rotation about vertical axes through the shoulder and elbow joints, the forearm is also permitted to elevate in...
The rehabilitation robot Lokomat allows automated treadmill training for patients with neurological gait disorders. The basic position control approach for the robot has been extended to patient-cooperative strategies. These strategies provide more freedom and allow patients to actively influence their training. However, patients are likely to need additional support during patient-cooperative training...
