Optimal Prioritized Dissipation and Closed-Form Damping Limitation under Actuator Constraints for Haptic Interfaces
Camilla Celli, Andrea Bini, Valerio Novelli +3
In haptics, guaranteeing stability is essential to ensure safe interaction with remote or virtual environments. One of the most relevant methods at the state-of-the-art is the Time…
Transparency evaluation for the Kinematic Design of the Harnesses through Human-Exoskeleton Interaction Modeling
Riccardo Bezzini, Carlo Alberto Avizzano, Francesco Porcini +1
Lower Limb Exoskeletons (LLEs) are wearable robots that provide mechanical power to the user. Human-exoskeleton (HE) connections must preserve the user's natural behavior during th…
User-centered evaluation of the Wearable Walker lower limb exoskeleton, preliminary assessment based on the Experience protocol
Cristian Camardella, Vittorio Lippi, Francesco Porcini +7
Using lower-limbs exoskeletons provides potential advantages in terms of productivity and safety associated with reduced stress. However, complex issues in human-robot interaction…
EXOSMOOTH: Test of Innovative EXOskeleton Control for SMOOTH Assistance, With and Without Ankle Actuation
Vittorio Lippi, Alessandro Filippeschi, Cristian Camardella +3
This work presents a description of the EXOSMOOTH project, oriented to the benchmarking of lower limb exoskeletons performance. In the field of assisted walking by powered lower li…
Identification of Gait Phases with Neural Networks for Smooth Transparent Control of a Lower Limb Exoskeleton
Vittorio Lippi, Cristian Camardella, Alessandro Filippeschi +1
Lower limbs exoskeletons provide assistance during standing, squatting, and walking. Gait dynamics, in particular, implies a change in the configuration of the device in terms of c…
Flexible Disaster Response of Tomorrow -- Final Presentation and Evaluation of the CENTAURO System
Tobias Klamt, Diego Rodriguez, Lorenzo Baccelliere +29
Mobile manipulation robots have high potential to support rescue forces in disaster-response missions. Despite the difficulties imposed by real-world scenarios, robots are promisin…
