This article presents how an adapted design of a mechatronics system and its control can lead to an intuitive interface for patients performing sit-to-stand motions. We focus on the design of a control based on fuzzy rules obtained by an analysis of external interaction forces subjects during motion. Experiments are done with 10 diseased patients in Bellan hospital and show a good learning rate.
