Physical training enables us to recover from disability in rehabilitation or to acquire motion skill. So far, many devices that assist human’s motion such as power assist suit have been developed. However, these devices do not consider human’s proficiency level or recovery degree, therefore some adjustments of the device i.e. how much the device generates its force, will be required according to the human’s proficiency level. In this paper, focusing on stabilization of an inverted pendulum, we propose a varying controller design method that changes its contribution for stabilization based on human’s proficiency level. The controller is designed based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) for fast on-line calculation. Human’s proficiency level is calculated from convergence level of the inverted pendulum system. The convergence level is obtained by a norm of state variables which is coordinate-transformed so that its norm decreases monotonically according to convergence. Based on human’s proficiency level, the controller is designed to change its contribution. Experimental results show the degree of controller contribution is decreased for high skilled subjects and increased for low skilled subjects. |
