Abstract

© 2016, World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd. All rights reserved. This paper presents investigations into the development of a control strategy lower limb exoskeleton device for elderly people. The exoskeleton is designed to enhance the lower limb capability and provide support torque to augment the torque of knee and hip during the walking cycle. Proportional derivative fuzzy logic controls are designed and implemented in this work. The visual Nastran 4D software is used to develop a simulation model of the exoskeleton and a humanoid for test and verification of the developed control mechanism. Simulation results demonstrating the performance of the adopted approach are presented and discussed.
