| Abstract(in English) | In recent years, the research and development of nursing and welfare robots, devices and systems intended for people with disabilities and elderly have been advanced. It is expected to utilize actively in not only welfare facilities for the aged and supporting facilities for disability person but also social world. When a person operates such robots and devices, it is necessary to activate it to the intended direction, but the general joystick is not useful to be controlled by a person with a deformity of hand or finger. Therefore the research of the method to transmit human intentions to the robot by using the biological information of the operator is proceeding. In this research we propose a method to perform the locomotive control of omnidirectional wheelchair using electromyogram of operator's front arm and fuzzy reasoning. In this method, the operator can move his/her head freely and it is more difficult to pick up a noise than the electroencephalograph. By using fuzzy reasoning, the intention of the operator can be transmitted to the robot by comprehensive estimating. To evaluate the performance of this system, we performed the locomotive experiment using electromyograph or gaze measurement device, and we confirmed that the operator can perform the locomotive control of wheelchair according to his/her instructions. |
