An actuator system may include a first actuator for being operated by a user, a second actuator for performing a movement of the user, and a transmission channel between the first actuator and the second actuator for transmitting the velocity and the force of the first actuator to the second actuator and vice versa. The actuator system may also include a controller, wherein the controller is configured such that, with the aid of the controller, the energy of the first actuator is adapted to be measured as a desired energy, wherein the transmission channel is configured for transmitting the desired energy to the second actuator and the controller is configured for controlling the damping of the second actuator as a function of the desired energy.
