  • Abstract
    This study presents several measures aimed at mathematically quantifying characteristics associated with human performance and wearable robot platform; there will be trials for improving the kinematic performance of the proposed wearable robot system through the optimization methodology. Within constrained conditions, optimal link lengths will be defined for its objectives and purposes. In particular, parameters from these studies and experiments, is one way of improving its performance of function-orient human robot corporative system; they are used for quantifying the feeling of putting on platform and flexibility, too.
