Hyundai Motor Group Develops Wearable Vest Exoskeleton to Alleviate Burden in Overhead Work
- New Wearable Vest EXoskeleton (VEX) is up to 42% lighter than competing products
- The VEX functions without the need for a battery by imitating human shoulder joint and using multilink lift assistant module
Compact Mechatronic Drive for Robotic Applications
This document presents a new optimized integration of a compact gear reducer, specific designs of BLDC motor and magnetic absolute position sensor for high torque per volume demanding applications.
It Will Be Possible to Integrate Exoskeletons Into Clothes
A stable wheelchair is automatically heavier. The same thing applies to exoskeletons. For a wearer to move about freely for an entire day, the battery has to be very powerful. But this means that it is also large and heavy.
Exoskeleton Market to Accrue Commendable Gains via Healthcare Applications Over 2017-2024
Exoskeletons are rapidly gaining momentum across myriad geographies. The huge presence of exosuit manufacturers and escalated product demand across military & healthcare sectors are anticipated to stimulate North America exoskeleton industry outlook.
Humanizing Exoskeletons for Soldiers, Workers and Paraplegics
Combat troops, miners, fire-fighters, EMS and disaster personnel are among those who can benefit from Draper's new approach to developing exosystems.
New Exoskeleton is Revolutionizing Work Processes
The Airframe is designed like a backpack and can be adjusted to almost any body size with an adjustable frame and straps. It supports the upper extremities of professionals and skilled trade workers who are exposed to repetitive arm motions and/or stationary arm elevation.
Getting Exoskeletons and Transporters into Every Home
We picture a reality where they have safe robots in the home to help lift heavy pots off the stove or heavy baskets off the floor, or walking robots that can carry groceries home or carry luggage.
RoboticsTomorrow.com - Q&A with Bionik Laboratories
Home-use assistive devices will first require a great deal of training and effort for the user. As a result, we thought the integration of the Amazon Echo would greatly assist this process, and facilitate ease of use as Echo also continues to improve.
Why Human-Controlled, Force-Multiplying Robots Are the Future of Work on Earth
Ben Wolff, CEO of Sarcos via IEEE Spectrum:
The future of robots could be tiny origami bots that fold into different shapes
Guanhong Hu for Quartz: Shuhei Miyashita and his team used the origami concept to make exoskeletons for a magnetic cube robot, called "Primer", letting it morph on demand to do various things in different conditions.
Has a French firm finally achieved the holy grail of robotics?
Greg Nichols for ZDNet: The biomechanics of bipedal walking are preposterously complex. A French firm claims to have built a robotic suit that can emulate the way we walk.
How Robots Using Amazon Alexa Could Help Injured People Be More Mobile at Home
Barb Darrow for Fortune: A Canadian-American robotics company is turning to the popular Amazon Alexa-Echo combo to help people with spinal or lower-body injuries be more mobile and autonomous in their homes.
Human Locomotion, Robotic Exoskeleton and Prostheses
Why is it so difficult to make walking more efficient in humans? There are a few challenges. People are highly complex, in the dynamics of our movements, in our hundreds of muscles and tendons, and in our wildly complex nervous systems.
ReWalk Unveils Soft Suit Exoskeleton for Stroke Patients
"Restore" NextGen Exoskeleton System Developed in Collaboration with Harvard's Wyss Institute
Researchers developing robotic prosthetics to help restore balance in fall victims
Ryan Terry for Phys.org: Hur's prior research helped him answer two questions: "Can we predict a fall? Can we then reduce the number of falls?"
