Abstract :
In this paper, we analyze human gait patterns, including knee and hip joint torques, and muscle activities for the unmanned research center exoskeleton (UTRCEXO). The UTRCEXO will implement a precedence walking assistance mechanism based on the human gait analysis and compare muscle activity reduction in the future.
