Sit-to-stand (STS) motion is a crucial part in activity of daily living (ADL).
The motion transitioning from sitting to standing becomes a challenge due to
several factors such as aging. urgency to address the physical decline
accompanying aging, especially in lower limb strength due to their
involvement in activities is needed. While STS lacks standardized evaluation
methods, simplified models aid in analyzing limb segments and joint forces.
Existing assistive devices, such as exoskeletons and push-chair assist devices,
have limitations in terms of cost, personalization, and adaptability. This
research not only comprehensively evaluates STS motion for quantifying
joint torques in lower limbs but also proposes an innovative, adaptable
assistive mechanism to provide elderly individuals’ needs, aiming to enhance
their independence and overall quality of life. From this research, the lower
limb joint such as ankle, knee, and hip torque are obtained to determine force
required for assistance needed such as full or partial assistance. Mathematical
model is provided through data gathering from experiment by using motion
capture, force platform, and anthropometry measurement. The mathematical
model is calculated through inverse dynamics method to obtain the lower limb
joint torque value during sit-to-stand motion. An alternative mechanism of a
sit-to-stand assistive device is proposed by using cable driven method to
provide assistance on user. Power provided by the motor, will give control
assistance for the user in giving assistance as needed.
