Abstract
In order to put a stand alone power assist suit to practical use which can wear directly to the body, sensing system and the mechanism have been improved. To stabilize the muscle hardness sensing system more, the sensor of the all-in-one design. that built the sensor into meshed belt was developed. In addition, a movable range of the suit was expanded, and the improvement in the mechanism was advanced. The sensing characteristic of the muscle sensor were improved, the content of the work wearing the suit was expanded and the assistance ability was improved.
