A New Method For Simulating The Car-Entering Movement

This article proposes a four-step method for simulating the car-entering movement. These four steps are:1 build a corrected motion database, containing the motions in which the feet follow their measured trajectory2 identify and characterise the Motion strategies of the car-entering movement, with each strategy being synthesised for a representative subject with known kinematic attributes3 model a segment of the predicted motion (e.g., the foot trajectories) using the motion strategies identified in Step 24 compute the joint angles and simulate the car-entering movement of a new subject.The results of the motion simulation demonstrate a good correlation between the corrected and simulated joint angles, with the distance between these angles increasing with the distance between the simulated subject and the representative subject.
