Abstract

In our research, we use GETA, Japanese traditional wooden-clogs. The simulator we developed can simulate human walking with GETA. The simulator employs Central Pattern Generator (CPG) for bipedal walking pattern generation. The CPG based walking pattern is one of the candidates for simulating human walking. The average Japanese body dimensions data are applied to the bipedal model so that human walking efficiency is evaluated on the simulator. The proposed simulator is compared with real human walking, by analyzing the swing leg trajectory and the data from the pressure sensor on the GETA. The data show the effectiveness of the simulator, and point out that efficiency of walking with GETA is better than normal walking without GETA.
