Abstract
In this paper, a conceptual design of the two iterations of compliant actuators used within BioMot project, as well as the control strategy used to operate these actuators, is presented. The result of the presented approach are 2 exoskeleton gait prototypes that will be used for incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) patients’ gait rehabilitation.
