PHYSICAL STRENGTH INCREASING ROBOT FOR ESTIMATING THE INTENSION OF A USER USING A FORCE-TORQUE SENSOR AND A CONTROL METHOD THEREOF CAPABLE OF PRECISELY AND NATURALLY CONTROLLING THE OPERATION OF THE ROBOT

摘要

PURPOSE: A physical strength increasing robot for estimating the intension of a user using a force-torque sensor and a control method thereof are provided to enable the natural operation of the robot even if a user wears the robot by minimizing the restriction of operation.;CONSTITUTION: A physical strength increasing robot for estimating the intension of a user using a force-torque sensor comprises a restriction tool (10), a force-torque sensor, and a robot control unit. The restriction tool surrounds the body of a user. The force-torque sensor is installed between the restriction tool and a skeleton element adjacent to the restriction tool. The robot control unit estimates the intension of the user using the value outputted from the force-torque sensor and controls the posture of the robot according to the estimated intension.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013
