Exoskeletons can augment the performance of unimpaired users and restore movement in
individuals with gait impairments. Knowledge of how users interact with wearable devices …

Since the early 2000s, researchers have been trying to develop lower-limb exoskeletons
that augment human mobility by reducing the metabolic cost of walking and running versus …

Variability in human walking depends on individual physiology, environment, and walking
task. Consequently, in the field of wearable robotics, there is a clear need for customizing …

As a typical application of the human-computer interaction device, the lower limb
exoskeleton has attracted many researchers' attention in recent years in an attempt to …

Background Many soldiers are expected to carry heavy loads over extended distances, often
resulting in physical and mental fatigue. In this study, the design and testing of an …

Neurologic injuries, such as stroke, spinal cord injuries, and weaknesses of skeletal muscles
with elderly people, may considerably limit the ability of this population to achieve the main …

We present the design and evaluation of a multi-articular soft exosuit that is portable, fully
autonomous, and provides assistive torques to the wearer at the ankle and hip during …

Exosuits show much promise as a method for augmenting the body with lightweight,
portable, and compliant wearable systems. We envision that such systems can be further …

Benchmarks have long been used to verify and compare the readiness level of different
technologies in many application domains. In the field of wearable robots, the lack of a …

Background Carrying load alters normal walking, imposes additional stress to the
musculoskeletal system, and results in an increase in energy consumption and a …
