Design and Experimental Verification of a Quasi-Passive Variable Stiffness Ankle Exoskeleton for Human Walking Assistance

Exoskeleton robots are an effective method for enhancing human walking ability. This paper introduces a quasi-passive variable stiffness ankle exoskeleton, which absorbs negative work produced during ankle dorsiflexion in the stance phase of the gait cycle and releases energy to assist plantar flexi
