The present invention discloses a method and
system for evaluating the performance of a
lower limb power-assisted
exoskeleton based on a continuous stair-climbing
gait. The method includes performing a continuous stair-climbing test on a number of test subjects, and each
test subject performs a continuous stair-climbing test with and without an
exoskeleton, wherein the continuous stair-climbing test includes multiple complete stair-climbing
gait cycles, wherein the stair-climbing
gait cycle includes a first double-support period, a single-support period, a second double-support period, and a swing period;
muscle activity data and metabolic cost data of the continuous stair-climbing test with and without an
exoskeleton are collected; statistical
data processing is performed on the collected
muscle activity data and metabolic cost data; and the processed data is analyzed to draw conclusions. The
power consumption reduction ratio and power-assisted efficiency of the power-assisted exoskeleton are calculated by analyzing the
test subject's electromyographic
signal,
oxygen consumption, and
carbon dioxide exhalation, and a comprehensive evaluation of the exoskeleton's performance is performed. The evaluation method is accurate, stable, simple, and easy to implement.
