Title
Test method for contact safety assessment of a wearable robot -analysis of load caused by a misalignment of the knee joint-
Abstract
Wearable robots have finally reached a point at which they can be put to more practical use. However, methods for assessing their safety have yet to be properly established. Furthermore, for ethical reasons, such assessments must be conducted without exposing the human user to unnecessary danger. Therefore, in this study, a lower-leg dummy for the safety assessment of a wearable robot was developed to evaluate the effects of a misaligned knee joint.
