Abstract
Assistive type lower extremity exoskeletons (ASLEE) which serve the lower limb disabilities always operate under a customized gait to achieve the dream of walking again. However, the customized gait is rigid that cannot provide stable motion for variation of terrain features. For the purpose of realizing intelligent control for an ASLEE named AIDER, a novel wearable sensing system which can realize posture and ground reaction force detection is proposed. The wearable sensing system employs 7 force sensors as a sensing matrix to achieve high accuracy of ground reaction force detection. One more IMU sensor is integrated into the wearable sensing system to realize 6-DOF posture capture.
