Research abstract
Despite years of development, exoskeletons have yet to demonstrate dynamic benefits where they can improve the performance of able-bodied individuals. This proposal aims to use novel fabric centered exoskeleton technology to develop a lightweight, high power density exoskeleton to improve dynamic human performance for the first time.
