In order to meet the maneuverability requirements of spacesuits for future manned planetary exploration, the concept of an active spacesuit based on the joint-assisted exoskeleton technology is presented. First, by studying the kinematic characteristics of the operator wearing the simulated spacesuit in different gravity environments, we developed a prototype of the upper limb exoskeleton. Then, the resistance moment of the simulated spacesuit was roughly obtained to match the operator’s motion range, being utilized to design the resistance moment model.............
