Abstract
This paper addresses attention to a low-cost command and control unit design which will be used on a leg exoskeleton especially designed for persons with neuro-locomotor disorders. The research aim is to obtain an user friendly interface for programming two linear actuators used on a leg exoskeleton structure. For achieving this, experimental analyses were performed in order to validate the leg exoskeleton prototype and also the proposed command and control electronic unit.Keywords
