| Research Abstract |
Standing up is an important for common daily activity. The ability to stand from the seated position is essential for independent living. In this research, an assistive device for standing-up motion is developed as an experimental system. For rehabilitation or training users are able to know own ability for standing by using the developed equipment. This paper also shows a controller scheme for force detection based on the internal model control method. The proposed method is applied for detecting force generated by humans.
The proposed research specifically emphasized that from theoretical and experimental findings the disturbance estimation property of the proposed method is useful for detecting force without additional sensors, e. g. force sensors, pressure sensors, or electromyography (EMC). The results are a further step in rehabilitation technology to contribute towards the development of equipment interacting with humans.
