Variable Grounding Flexible Limb Tracking Center of Gravity for Sit-to-Stand Transfer Assistance

Wearable robotic limbs support sit-to-stand (STS) transfer with increased stability while maintaining a compact size, as well as providing body weight support. This paper proposes a new robotic limb, Variable Grounding Flexible Limb (VGFL). The VGFL achieved a novel strategy in which its grounding p
