Development of knee joint angle trajectory tracking for leg support mechanism

Human assistive device is a device designed for helping human with disability and impairment problem to perform daily activities as normal person. The main categories of the assistive device are passive and active types. The active type requires power source to operate its mechanism while the pas...
