FLAGSTAFF, AZ (AZFamily) — Exoskeletons aren’t just used in movies. They help people regain mobility and strength. However, they can be expensive and can take years to design. So, a group of ...
Being unable to walk quickly can be frustrating and problematic, but it is a common issue, especially as people age. Noting the pervasiveness of slower-than-desired walking, engineers at Stanford ...
An ABS exoskeleton called "magic arms" is one of the candidates for the Designs of the Year 2013 awards by London's Design Museum. Researchers at the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in ...
The ankle exoskeletons, developed by researchers at Stanford University, use motors to give you extra power while you walk. CNET's Claire Reilly takes them for a test drive. Claire Reilly was a video ...
LSU and Rutgers University researchers are collaborating to develop an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to bring emerging robotic technologies, such as a wearable exoskeleton, to the ...
A new experimental exoskeleton developed by mechanical engineers at the University of Utah’s Bionic Engineering Lab enables an amputee to walk with much less effort, while restoring strength and range ...
Harvard has been awarded $2.9 million by DARPA to continue work on the Soft Exosuit. Using fabric straps and a network of cables, it can reduce injuries, improve stamina, and enhance balance without ...
The U.S. Navy plans to evaluate and test Lockheed Martin’s FORTIS industrial exoskeletons, which help minimize fatigue in heavy-duty operations. While a real-life Iron Man suit may not yet be in the ...
Being unable to walk quickly can be frustrating and problematic, but it is a common issue, especially as people age. A new ankle exoskeleton allowed users to walk, on average, 42% faster than when ...
