- Abstract
Through this paper there are presented some approaches regarding the experimental research of a walking test bed especially designed for children with ages between 4 to 6 years old. The proposed test bed consists of an exoskeleton and a treadmill. The exoskeleton has six actuation units for motion assistance through chain transmissions of the entire locomotion system. Thus there will be performed experimental tests in specific laboratory conditions, by having in sight reference motions of healthy subjects during walking activities. The obtained experimental results will validate the proposed prototype design, based on comparative analyses.
