Hydrostatic actuation for wearable robotics

Exoskeletons require energy efficient actuators of low mass and volume (to increase wearability) with controlled output force, sufficient for full gait support. The main research objective of this work was to develop such an actuator.First, the concept of the passive return electro-hydrostatic actuator (PREHydrA) was developed.
