Abstract

This study makes use of (1) LifeMod biomechanics software to construct customized user parameters; (2) the load conditions of hip joint and knee joint created by software analysis to serve as a basis of motor rating selection; (3) foot plantar pressure measurement plate and gesture recognition sensors to accomplish the monitoring and warning respectively of the rehabilitation motion. Based on the above-mentioned practice and procedure, the developed rehabilitation mechanism possesses the advantages of shortening design cycle, increasing added-value, improving product quality and enhancing product reliability. Above all, it is instrumental to the research and industry of rehabilitation products.
