Metabolic cost of walking with electromechanical ankle exoskeletons under proportional myoelectric control on a treadmill and outdoors [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Lower limb robotic exoskeletons are often studied in the context of steady state treadmill walking in a laboratory environment. However, the end goal for exoskeletons is to be used in real world, complex environments. To reach the point that exoskeletons

Human-exoskeleton interaction force estimation in Indego exoskeleton
Robotics, 2023 Abstract Accurate interaction force estimation can play an important role in optimization human-robot interaction in exoskeleton. In this work, we propose a novel approach for system identification of exoskeleton dynamics in presence of interaction forces as a whole multi-body system regardless of gait phase or any ...
