Resumen

El control de la postura para asistir la articulación de la rodilla en personas con movilidad reducida puede implementarse en una ortesis robótica mediante controladores de impedancia/admitancia, lo que requiere métodos para lograr un bloqueo y desbloqueo suaves de la articulación durante el ciclo de la marcha. Este trabajo propone un controlador de admitancia para una ortesis activa de rodilla que ajusta los parámetros de impedancia y amortiguamiento en función de la velocidad y las fases de la marcha. El sistema se validó en voluntarios y los resultados muestran un buen reconocimiento de las fases de la marcha y un ajuste suave de la impedancia de la rodilla. La modulación de los parámetros de admitancia es ajustable, y esta ortesis puede adaptarse a casos con asimetrías en la marcha.
