Analysis of the Human Interaction with a Wearable Lower‐Limb Exoskeleton [PDF]
Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2009 The design of a wearable robotic exoskeleton needs to consider the interaction, either physical or cognitive, between the human user and the robotic device. This paper presents a method to analyse the interaction between the human user and a unilateral, wearable lower‐limb exoskeleton.

Design and Evaluation of a Soft Assistive Lower Limb Exoskeleton [PDF]
Robotica, 2019 SummaryWearable devices are fast evolving to address mobility and autonomy needs of elderly people who would benefit from physical assistance. Recent developments in soft robotics provide important opportunities to develop soft exoskeletons (also called exosuits) to enable both physical assistance and improved usability and acceptance for users.
