WEARABLE DEVICE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREFOR

Abstract: a wearable device may include: a first sensor for measuring a joint angle of a user; a driving module, which generates torque through a motor so as to apply an external force to the user; and a processor, which receives angle information obtained by measuring the angle through the first sensor, determines, on the basis of the received angle information and a plurality of parameter values, first control information for generating the torque, controls the driving module on the basis of the determined first control information such that torque corresponding to the determined first control information is generated, determines reference values for changing parameters by using at least one from among angle values of the received angle information, a provided angular velocity value and a provided torque value, and changes at least one of the parameter values if at least one from among a first angle value received from the first sensor values after the reference values are determined, a first angular velocity value obtained after the reference values are determined, and a first torque value determined after the reference values are determined reaches one of the determined reference values.
