Outline of Final Research Achievements

Rehabilitation robot technology for assisting the body function has been expected in the super-aged society in Japan. The conventional robot has a problem that causes compensatory movement in other part of the body by assisting specific part of the body. We choose a prosthesis to substitute limbs as an application destination to aim for early social realization of the rehabilitation robot. This robot can provide less load on parts of the whole body by working as a part of the operator’s body. In this research, the goal is to develop a control method of the rehabilitation robot to induce embodiment in the brain. We categorized the task and carried out to reach this goal as follows: (A) Control strategy to induce embodiment in the brain, (B) Installation of the prosthesis that can perceive embodiment, (C) Evaluation of whole-body cooperative movement caused by embodiment.
