Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate contributions of the high-frequency vibrations propagated in a human whole body and the related haptic mechanisms to realize dynamic body movement by impedance control of the musculoskeletal system, we develop an estimation method of the impedance of legs during lower limb exercises and a measurement method of the propagated vibration. We suggested that humans adjust the impedance of the feet during pedaling exercises to adopt environmental load changes. We also develop a novel method to record the relationship between the gait motions and propagated vibrations easily.
