Trends in Wearable Assistive Robotics Technology

착용형 근력증강 기술 동향

  • Published : 2017.08.01

Abstract

최근 직물 또는 유연 재질을 활용하여 높은 착용 편의성을 가지면서 사용자의 움직임을 방해하지 않도록 설계되어 활동성을 높인 근력보조 시스템의 연구 결과들이 발표되고 있다. 이러한 결과들은 특정 분야가 아닌 일반인 또는 고령자를 대상으로한 일상생활용 근력보조 슈트 개발 연구에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대되면서, 근력보조 슈트에 대한 관심 또한 높아지고 있다. 따라서 본고에서는 활용 분야별 근력증강 시스템의 개발 동향과 핵심 기술의 현황에 관하여 기술하고자 한다.
