Development of a straighten-knee walking system for exoskeleton and verified on a small sized humanoid robot

Meeting & Discussion

Most exoskeletons use the knee bent walking method which derived from humanoid robot to assist the wearer’s locomotion. Knee bent walking not only cost a lot of energy consumption, but its behavior is also inconsistent with human motion. This study proposes a human-like gait model which is more suitable for exoskeleton usage. Import this model into a customized small humanoid robot that using a self-develop smart servo motor to confirm the theory.
