Review of Research on Upper Limb Assisted Exoskeletons
Abstract
The significance of developing upper limb assisted exoskeletons in the current epidemic situation, frequent disasters and shortage of labor resources is briefly described. The development history, classification methods of exoskeletons and the characteristics, applicable groups, application scenarios of upper limb assisted exoskeletons are introduced. The research results and products related to upper limb assisted exoskeletons at home and abroad are reviewed in detail, including their basic structure and evaluation experimental results, and the key technologies are described and analyzed such as the drive and transmission, human motion intention recognition, human-robot coordinated motion involved in human-robot interaction, etc. The existing problems in the current research are summarized and the future development trend of upper limb assisted exoskeletons is prospected.
