Short summary
A wearable ankle assisted robot is developed to meet the demand for ankle assistance during human walking. The active energy storage mechanism in the robot can realize the storage and release of energy and realize the application of a low-power motor to provide large assisted force. The experimental results show that the net metabolic cost of the participants is reduced by averages of 5.30 %, 5.67 %, and 4.84 % with 0, 4, and 8 kg loads respectively.
