DESIGN OF A SENSORIAL AND DRIVING LOCOMOTION INTERFACE

Abstract This paper deals with the design of a 1D locomotion interface of which main characteristic is to be a sensorial and driving force interface. The aim is to keep globally the user at the same place according to forces he/she applied on the interface. So, our interface is instrumented with force sensors and tracking devices. Motor sizing hardly depends on kinematics and dynamics features of human gait. To ensure the computation in real time, tasks of the application are distributed using parallel computing.
