By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning DailyNews – Research findings on robotics are discussed in a new report. According to news originating fromSapporo, Japan, by NewsRx corresp ondents, research stated, “With the progression of an aging society,the importa nce of walking assistance technology has been increasing.”Funders for this research include Jst Spring.The news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Hokkaido University : “The researchand development of robotic walkers for individuals requiring wal king support are advancing. However,there was a problem that the conventional c onstant support amount did not satisfy the propulsion forcerequired for the wal king speed that users wanted. In this study, in order to solve this problem, we proposean algorithm for determining the support amount to maintain the walking speed when the average walkingspeed of each user is set as the target speed. A robotic walker was developed by attaching BLDC motorsto an actual walker, along with a control algorithm for assistance based on sampling-type PID control.The effectiveness of the assistance determination algorithm and the usefulness of t he parameters weredemonstrated through experiments using weights loaded on the forearm support and target speeds.”
