Highly Mobile Robotic Exoskeleton for Upright Mobility

The team aim to develop a powered exoskeleton that will provide someone with lower-limb paralysis fast, stable, and agile upright mobility. Utilizing modular actuation, perception technology from autonomous vehicles, and control algorithms for balancing autonomous humanoid robots, this device will deliver the mobility, safety, and independence that current exoskeletons cannot.
