Research abstract
The objective of this Phase I project is to demonstrate the technical feasibility of integrating multiple safety technologies into a single wearable system to enhance lifting capabilities and safety withinámanufacturing, maintenance, and repair facilities. We propose leveraging several of our patented and patent-pending innovations to develop a back exosuit that maximizes utility while working at height and during emergency response situations.
