Torque and variable stiffness control for antagonistically driven pneumatic muscle actuators via a stable force feedback controller
(IEEE, 2015)
This paper describes a novel controller that is capable of simultaneously controlling torque and variable stiffness in real-time, for actuators with antagonistically driven pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs). To this end, ...
Towards balance recovery control for lower body exoskeleton robots with variable stiffness actuators: spring-loaded flywheel model
(IEEE, 2015)
This paper presents a biologically-inspired real-time balance recovery control strategy that is applied to a lower body exoskeleton with variable physical stiffness actuators at its ankle joints. For this purpose, a torsional ...
Environmental force estimation for a robotic hand : compliant contact detection
(IEEE, 2015)
This paper presents a model based compensation method to enable environmental force estimation for a robotic hand with no tactile or force sensors. To this end, we utilize multi-joint robot dynamics and disturbance observer ...
A comparison study on observer-based force control of series elastic actuators
(IEEE, 2018)
This paper presents a comparison study for the robust force control of series elastic actuators (SEAs). In most robotics systems, SEAs are used as an essential actuation method due to the benefits such as lower reflected ...
Co-ex: A torque-controllable lower body exoskeleton for dependable human-robot co-existence
(IEEE, 2019-06)
In this paper, we present our research study concerning the design and development of an exoskeleton that aims to provide 3D walking support with minimum number of actuators. Following a prior simulation study, the joint ...
3-D dynamic walking trajectory generation for a bipedal exoskeleton with underactuated legs: A proof of concept
(IEEE, 2019-06)
This paper presents a framework to address three dimensional (3-D) dynamic walking for a bipedal exoskeleton with underactuated legs. To achieve this goal, the framework is constructed via a trajectory generator and an ...
A soft+rigid hybrid exoskeleton concept in scissors-pendulum mode: A suit for human state sensing and an exoskeleton for assistance
(IEEE, 2019-06)
In this paper, we present a novel concept that can enable the human aware control of exoskeletons through the integration of a soft suit and a robotic exoskeleton. Unlike the state-of-the-art exoskeleton controllers which ...
Optimal stiffness tuning for a lower body exoskeleton with spring-supported passive joints
(IEEE, 2018-10-09)
This paper presents a framework to optimally tune the stiffness values of spring-supported passive joints that are included in lower body exoskeletons. First, a dynamic model of a combined human-exoskeleton system was ...
