Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our aim is to establish a technical foundation for adding a new degree of freedom to human body. The body extension means not only creating a new degree of freedom of motion but also acquiring of the image of the extended body. In this project, we conducted a study to make an artificial third arm that is a robot arm controlled without loss of user's degree of freedom of the innate arms. For the arm control we developed an intraoral interface using a tongue capable of delicate movements. We also developed a haptic display to be mounted on the back in order to present an image of the posture and movement of the third arm to the user. The experimental results proved the validity of the developed system. In addition, we made a prototype of a new principle of the robot arm using a motion limiting mechanism.
