Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to enable designing effective and useful assistive devices/tools which are connected to some part of human body directly or through some attachment parts, such as wearable power-assist suits, joint rehabilitation devices and walking sticks, taking into consideration the deformation of the connection parts and slippage between them, the concept “dynamic pair” is introduced. The dynamic pair is a kinemato-dynamic model of the connection parts between the assist device and human body. By introducing the dynamic pairs to the model of the human-device systems, effective and practical designs of the assistive devices have been discussed through demonstrative examples on the rehabilitation devices and stick walking. The results will contribute to the generation of the novel kinematics and design, assessment and development of effective, useful and lean assistive devices/tools.
