Abstract
The paper describes a concept of a hip articulation of the ‘Veni-Prometheus’ System for Verticalisation and Aiding Motion, developed at the Division of Design of Precision Devices, Faculty of Mechatronics, Warsaw University of Technology. The device is to be attached to the hip belt of the orthotic robot and allows movements of lower limb in sagittal and transverse planes to be realized. Such motion can enable the orthotic robot to perform turns by allowing a hip rotation of lower limb.
