By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Data detailed on robotics and mechatro nics have been presented.According to news reporting out of Fukuoka, Japan, by NewsRx editors, research stated, “Workers in factories, construction sites, and farms are often exposed to the risk of physical disability and injury.”Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Waseda Universit y: “Particularly, the lower back and shoulders require assistance, as injuries c an make it difficult to continue working.While social concern about back injuri es is high and preventive measures are taken, lesser attention is paid to should ers, resulting in inadequate assistance and prevention mechanisms.Therefore, we arable, low-cost, and lightweight upper limb assistive devices that can be used in multiple scenarios are desired by workers.In this study, we proposed a devic e that uses a remote center of motion (RCM) mechanism, enabling the device to su pport user’s upper arm from below, and the rotational center of device to corres pond with shoulder joint.The theoretical assist torque is designed to be suffic ient for arm gravity compensation of Japanese males of standard body size.”
