Abstract

In this paper, we proposed the design and algorithm of force reflection joystick which control mobile robot as a rehabilitation assistance system. The disabled persons are poor at joystick control because of hand vibration and clumsiness in operating it. These problems bring tasks which concerned with operator's safety So there is required technique which prevent collision with wall or obstacles. One of these solution is force reflection joystick which disturb that robot is closed to the wall. To confirm this way, we experimented and simulated with force reflection joystick which attached torque controller.
