    摘要: A method and device for controlling a walking assist device is disclosed. The method includes determining a first state variable for a gait state of a user wearing the walking assist device based on a gait of the user, obtaining a second state variable which is smoothed and time-delayed from the first state variable, obtaining a third state variable by applying a torque control variable to the second state variable, and determining an assist torque to be provided by the walking assist device based on the obtained third state variable.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling a walking assistance apparatus are provided. The apparatus may include a detector configured to detect a first step of a user, based on measured right and left hip joint angle information, a reconstructor unit configured to reconstruct knee joint information matched to the right and left hip joint angle information based on knee joint trajectory information in response to the user's steps, and a torque generator configured to generate a first torque applied to a first leg corresponding to the first step. The torque generator may generate the first torque, based on a second torque applied to a second leg that is opposite to the first leg and that corresponds to a second step preceding the first step.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling an operation of a service robot is disclosed. The method includes measuring, by processing circuitry, an evaluation index of the service robot based on sensor data in a service mode; determining, by the processing circuitry, an operation mode of the service robot from a set of at least two operation modes based on the measured evaluation index; selecting, by the processing circuitry, a behavior to be applied to the operation of the service robot from a set of at least two behaviors based on the operation mode; and controlling, by the processing circuitry, the operation of the service robot based on the behavior.
