Training system and ankle-joint torque estimating method

摘要

A training system includes: an inverted-pendulum mobile body including a drive wheel and a riding portion on which a rider rides in a standing position; a first detecting unit configured to detect a driving torque that is applied to the drive wheel to maintain the inverted-pendulum mobile body in an inverted state; a second detecting unit configured to detect a load applied by the rider to an assisting support portion configured to assist the rider in maintaining a balance; and an output unit configured to generate torque information about an ankle-joint torque applied by the rider to the riding portion, based on the driving torque detected by the first detecting unit and the load detected by the second detecting unit, and configured to output the torque information.
