Optimized hip–knee–ankle exoskeleton assistance at a range of walking speeds

Optimized hip–knee–ankle exoskeleton assistance at a range of walking speeds

Abstract Background Autonomous exoskeletons will need to be useful at a variety of walking speeds, but it is unclear how optimal hip–knee–ankle exoskeleton assistance should change with speed. Biological joint moments tend to increase with speed, and in some cases, optimized ankle exoskeleton torque...
