Smart Wearable Robots with Bioinspired Sensory-Motor Skills (BioMot)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

Wearable robots (WR) are person-oriented devices, usually in the form of exoskeletons. These devices are worn by human operators to enhance or support a daily function, such as walking. WRs find applications in the enhancement of intact operators or in clinical environments, e.g. rehabilitation of gait function in neurologically injured patients. Most advanced WRs for human locomotion still fail t ...
