Pneumatically-powered robotic exoskeleton to exercise specific lower extremity muscle groups in humans

A control method is proposed for exercising specific muscles of a human's lower body. This is accomplished using an exoskeleton that imposes active force feedback control. The proposed method involves a combined dynamic model of the musculoskeletal system of the lower-body with the dynamics of...
