Resum

The main objective of this work is obtaining a framework able to provide bio-inspired torque assistance to disabled humans during walking. The method is based on a bio-inspired model copying natural dynamics of the leg muscles, and containing top-down primitives, short-loop reflexes, and a torso stabilization mechanism.
