Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The relevance of the study is due to the need to develop innovative technologies that can increase the mobility and efficiency of people in different gravitational environments, which has the potential to have a substantial impact on the fields of medicine, industry, and space activities. This study aims to analyse the control system of the exoskeleton for the lower limb with a gravity-independent suspension to identify possible improvements and optimisations in its functionality and efficiency. Among the methods used are the analytical, classification, functional, statistical, and synthesis methods. The control system of the exoskeleton for the lower limb with a gravity-independent suspension was thoroughly analysed. The mechanical design had to be optimised for ergonomics and weight, and the electronics included advanced sensors and microcontrollers for precise control. The software should include algorithms for stabilisation and adaptation to the environment. Energy management should be designed to extend battery life. The exoskeleton must comply with safety and ergonomics standards. The possibilities of scaling production and user training are considered, which makes this system promising for medical and industrial fields and emphasises its potential in training and integration into everyday life. The analysis of the innovative control system of an exoskeleton with a gravity-independent suspension in this study has prospects for use in medicine, increasing efficiency in industry and maintaining mobility in various gravity conditions, opening up new horizons in the field of technological solutions to improve the quality of life.
