Abstract :
With the rapid increase in the aging population of Japan, the need for robotic gait training has grown. This paper presents a novel design of a gait training device that allows gait training to be done independently. Through experiment results, a novel guideline for ”correct gait pattern” will be introduced, and using this guideline, this paper will present a patient-reflected strategy that allows patients to influence the trajectory of the leg movement given from the device. Experiments are carried out to verify the effect of the proposed algorithm.
