Human motion evaluation based on multi-scale body model
Hiroshima University, Graduate School of Engineering, Associate Professor
Researchers Theme Outline
In this research, objective indexes of efficiency and controllability are considered to evaluate human motions. A multi-scale human body model, which consists of a musculoskeletal model and a muscle contraction model, will be built to estimate the muscle activity during motions. An interaction environment and a control method of a motion assist device that adjust individuals will be developed by taking the proposed motion evaluation indexes into account.
