IROS 2018poster

Currently, most of commercially available ankle foot prosthesis are passive, which don't exhibit appropriate biomechanics during walking and could not adapt to dynamic property of able-bodied walking. In this paper, we present a novel robotic ankle foot prosthesis with variable transmission series e…

Variable Transmission Series Elastic Actuator for Robotic Prosthesis

Xiaojun Sun, Fumihito Sugai, Kei Okada, Masayuki Inaba

ICRA 2018poster

In this paper, we introduce a novel robotic prosthetic knee as shown in Fig. 1 (named as SuKnee) with variable transmission mechanism that could vary transmission ratio while knee angle varies during ambulation activities. A slider crank mechanism is utilized to transform linear motion of series ela…
