  • Patent number: 11628557
    Abstract: A force applying auxiliary device and a control method thereof are provided. The force applying auxiliary device includes a sensor group, a processor, and a force applying driver. The sensor group includes a first sensor disposed on a first side and a second sensor disposed on a second side. The processor collects motion posture data of a user according to the first sensor and the second sensor, and determines whether a motion of the user is abnormal. When determining that the motion of the user is abnormal, the processor selects at least one preset abnormal pattern as a specific abnormal pattern according to the motion posture data, and controls the force applying driver to provide a force by using the specific abnormal pattern. A force difference between first and second forces applied to first and second side feet is adjusted based on a difference in sampling values between the sensors.

  • Publication number: 20200405566
    Abstract: A balance assistance system includes a rotating member, a first driving unit, a sensing module, and a processing unit. The first driving unit is connected to the rotating member. The first driving unit is configured to drive the rotating member to rotate. The processing unit is electrically connected to the first driving unit and the sensing module. The processing unit receives a sensing signal from the sensing module. The processing unit determines a current behavior mode from a plurality of behavior modes according to the sensing signal. The processing unit controls the first driving unit to adjust a rotating speed of the rotating member according to the current behavior mode.
