Human power amplification robot estimating user's intension by detecting joint torque and control method thereof

摘要

PURPOSE: A physical strength increasing robot for estimating the intension of a user by measuring torque in a rotary joint and a control method thereof are provided to enable the natural operation of the robot according to the action of a user. CONSTITUTION: A control method of a physical strength increasing robot is as follows. Torque in a rotary joint (20) is measured. Data required for controlling the posture of the robot is obtained by estimating the direction and speed of the operation to which a user intends using the measured torque value. The rotary joint is operated using the obtained data.
