This paper presents a modular, computationally-distributed "multi-robot" cyberphysical system designed to assist children with developmental delays in learning to walk. The system consists of two modules, each assisting a different aspect of gait: a tethered cable pelvic module with up to 6 degrees of freedom (DOF), which can modulate the motion of the pelvis in three dimensions, and a two DOF wearable hip module assisting lower limb motion, specifically hip flexion. Both modules are designed to be lightweight and minimally restrictive to the user, and the modules can operate independently or in cooperation with each other, allowing flexible system configuration to provide highly customized and adaptable assistance. Motion tracking performance of approximately 2 mm root mean square (RMS) error for the pelvic module and less than 0.1 mm RMS error for the hip module was achieved. We demonstrate coordinated operation of the two modules on a mannequin test platform with articulated and instrumented lower limbs. |
