Recently, lower extremity exoskeletons have been specifically developed for transportation of disabled individuals. This paper summarizes the anthropomorphic design of a lower extremity exoskeleton named "walking supporting exoskeleton (WSE)." WSE has been developed to support some fundamental motions (walking, sitting, standing, etc.) of disabled individuals who lost leg muscular activities completely or partially. WSE has two degrees of freedom per leg which are powered by electrical actuators. This paper discusses critical design criteria considered in mechanical design and actuator selection of WSE.en10.1109/TMECH.2013.2250295info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessActuatorsexoskeletonsmechatronicsroboticsDesign and Actuator Selection of a Lower Extremity ExoskeletonArticle192623632Q1WOS:000332010400022Q1
