A Standing Assist Trajectory Generation Method of Transfer Robot

Abstract

The increase in the number of the elderly and the disabled in China has brought a huge pressure to daily nursing work. Standing assistance for the elderly and the disabled is an important part of daily nursing work. Robots are used to assist nursing staff in completing this work, which reduces the work pressure of nursing staff. This article focuses on the research of a transfer robot system used to assist the elderly and the disabled to stand and transfer. Since the predefined standing assist trajectory need to collect the user’s standing motion, this paper proposes a standing assist trajectory generation method based on the direct collocation method, which can generate the standing assist trajectory according to the user’s height, weight and body state.
