Bio-inspired standing balance controller for a full-mobilization exoskeleton

Auke Ijspeert, Mohamed Bouri, Jemina Fasola, Romain Pierre François Baud, Tristan Hubert Vouga

This paper presents a novel method to perform automatic standing balance in a full mobilization exoskeleton. It exploits the locked ankle and the curved foot sole of the exoskeleton TWIICE. The idea is to use the knees to roll the sole and change the posit ...

Detection of movement onset using EMG signals for upper-limb exoskeletons in reaching tasks

Silvestro Micera

BackgroundTo assist people with disabilities, exoskeletons must be provided with human-robot interfaces and smart algorithms capable to identify the user's movement intentions. Surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals could be suitable for this purpose, bu ...
