Design and Actuator Optimization of Lightweight and Compliant Knee Exoskeleton for Mobility Assistance of Children with Crouch Gait
Sainan Zhang, Tzu-Hao Huang, Chunhai Jiao +4
Pediatric exoskeletons offer great promise to increase mobility for children with crouch gait caused by cerebral palsy. A lightweight, compliant and user-specific actuator is criti…
Quasi-Direct Drive Actuation for a Lightweight Hip Exoskeleton with High Backdrivability and High Bandwidth
Shuangyue Yu, Tzu-Hao Huang, Xiaolong Yang +7
High-performance actuators are crucial to enable mechanical versatility of lower-limb wearable robots, which are required to be lightweight, highly backdrivable, and with high band…
Spine-Inspired Continuum Soft Exoskeleton for Stoop Lifting Assistance
Xiaolong Yang, Tzu-Hao Huang, Hang Hu +6
Back injuries are the most prevalent work-related musculoskeletal disorders and represent a major cause of disability. Although innovations in wearable robots aim to alleviate this…
A Soft High Force Hand Exoskeleton for Rehabilitation and Assistance of Spinal Cord Injury and Stroke Individuals
Shuangyue Yu, Hadia Perez, James Barkas +7
Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) and stroke who is lack of manipulation capability have a particular need for robotic hand exoskeletons. Among assistive and rehabilitative…
Design and Control of a Quasi-Direct Drive Soft Exoskeleton for Knee Injury Prevention during Squatting
Shuangyue Yu, Tzu-Hao Huang, Dianpeng Wang +6
This paper presents design and control innovations of wearable robots that tackle two barriers to widespread adoption of powered exoskeletons, namely restriction of human movement…
Leveraging Elastic instabilities for Amplified Performance: spine-inspired high-speed and high-force soft robots
Yichao Tang, Yinding Chi, Jiefeng Sun +6
Soft machines typically exhibit slow locomotion speed and low manipulation strength because of intrinsic limitations of soft materials. Here, we present a generic design principle…
