Research on Chinese Traditional Medical Massage Robotic Products Usability Design Process

Abstract

Abstract It is well known that traditional Chinese medical massage has always been the most effective way to relieve and treat all kinds of chronic pain. More and more TCM massage robots are needed, due to the population aging and the high percent of sub-health. This article mainly do some of the following work. First of all, Based on the principles of product availability and ergonomics, the author summarized the usability elements in the process of TCM massage robot products Secondly, According to the theory and techniques of Chinese medicine massage, the robot terminal designed can realize pressing, kneading, rolling and vibrating techniques. Lastly, the prototype has been successfully developed, which has advantages of smooth operation, good manipulability, low noise and small vibration, during the experiment.
