| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, a great deal of attention has been paid to powered exoskeletons for heavy labors in the engineering field. Previous research demonstrated that the coordinated control of mono-articular muscle and bi-articular muscle would provide functions of adjusting the force direction and keeping the posture. Meanwhile a little research focused on the coordinated control to support human performance. This research, therefore, explored the performance of a lower limb attached artificial muscle on the front of shin where no innate bi-articular muscle exists. The experiment device was designed to determine the force and displacement of a toe with the artificial muscle. Based on the previous survey result, the applied tension of the artificial muscle and angle of each joint were set as the experimental condition. Through this experiment, the method changing the angle for adjusting toe force and keeping the posture was suggested.
