Monitoring the Mental State of Cooperativeness for Guiding an Elderly Person in Sit-to-Stand Assistance

A novel method for detecting sit-to-stand intent using mechanical toe stimulus with foot reaction forces

“…For example, in ref. [23], Bell and Asada developed a system to estimate the mental state of users by assessing whether they agreed to and accepted a robotic aid for safe and effective STS assistance. Their approach involved applying a light physical push to the user’s back to prompt forward bending and analyzing their physical responses, such as shoulder movement direction and speed, to detect their willingness to cooperate with the robotic system.…”
