Biomechatronics concerns the interdisciplinary field of interaction with the human neuromuscular-skeletal system with the objective to assist impaired human motor control. In this field technology is developed that integrates neuroscience, robotics, interface and sensor technology, dynamic systems and control theory. The primary issue in this field concerns the concepts of assisting impaired human motor function. The secondary, derived, issue concerns possible methods of interfacing with the human body at all hierarchical levels of the human motor system. The application of motor assist systems may serve several goals: it can take over part of the affected motor control, enable the physiological motor system to perform the desired function or aid in training the impaired physiological system. The progress in these issues are reviewed and their potential implications for assistance of the impaired human motor system are discussed.
生物机电一体化涉及与人类神经肌肉骨骼系统相互作用的跨学科领域,目的是辅助受损的人类运动控制。在这个领域中,人们开发了整合神经科学、机器人技术、接口与传感器技术、动态系统以及控制理论的技术。该领域的主要问题涉及辅助受损人类运动功能的概念。次要的、衍生的问题涉及在人类运动系统的所有层次水平上与人体进行接口连接的可能方法。运动辅助系统的应用可能服务于多个目标:它可以接管部分受影响的运动控制,使生理运动系统能够执行期望的功能,或者有助于训练受损的生理系统。本文回顾了这些问题的进展,并讨论了它们对辅助受损人类运动系统的潜在影响。
