Based on a pneumatic artificial rubber muscle (PARM) to restrict trunk twisting range of motion (ROM), a rollover support corset was developed for cancer bone metastasis patients. In this paper, the performance of restricting trunk rotational ROM of developed corset was evaluated by comparing with that of the traditional hard corset in sitting posture and rollover movement. Through experimentation, the effectiveness of the rollover support corset using EMG signal and PARM was confirmed. In future, the recognition algorithm of subtle EMG will be established and a clinical test will be conducted to confirm the effectiveness of the intelligent corset.
