Stimulation Control of FES Cycling Chair by Physical Work Estimation

摘要

In the previous work, we proposed a cycling chair system driven by Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) excited human legs. The system gives not only a daily mobile means but also a joyful rehabilitation of the legs. In this paper, we propose a method to decide the stimulation intensities based on the physical work estimation and verify the performance by experiments on able-bodied person.
