Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research focuses on robotics systems on health care and wellness field. Humans are capable of achieving human support tasks because they have experiences and haptics sense. When robots replace the task, they are required to achieve the gentle and kind motions. Patients and robots should not have conflicts in their motion; thus, robots need to understand patients’ motion. This research proposes a method to acquire the change of human body characteristic by using power factor in the motion.
