Abstract
A wearable apparatus recognizes an exercise move of a user based on motion information of the user, determines torque reference information based on a result of the recognizing, determines torque command information based on the determined torque reference information and a predetermined factor, and outputs a torque based on the determined torque command information.
Claims18
An operating method of a wearable apparatus, the operating method comprising:
- determining a first motion of a user as a first exercise move of a of a plurality of exercise moves which are distinguished from one another in a cycle of an exercise based on at least one of hip joint angles of the user;
- outputting a first torque that assists the user as the user performs the first exercise move, the first torque being based on a first gain having a first sign;
- and
- outputting a second torque that resists the user as the user performs a second exercise move of the plurality of exercise moves when determining a second motion which is a subsequent motion of the first motion as the second exercise move, the second torque being based on a second gain having a second sign different from the first sign.

A wearable apparatus, comprising:
- a driver configured to output a torque;
- and
- a controller configured to,
- determine a first motion of a user as a first exercise move of a plurality of exercise moves which are distinguished from one another in a cycle of an exercise based on at least one of the hip joint angles of the user,
- control the driver to output a first torque that assists the user as the user performs the first exercise move, and
- control the driver to output a second torque that resists the user as the user performs a second exercise move of the plurality of exercise moves when determining a second motion which is a subsequent motion of the first motion as the second exercise move,
- wherein the first torque is based on a first gain having a first sign, and the second torque is based on a second gain having a second sign different from the first sign.
