Influence of a Soft Robotic Suit on Metabolic Cost in Long-Distance Level and Inclined Walking

Metabolic cost during walking is positively linked to exercise intensity. For a walking assistive device, one of the major aims should be the maximization of wearers’ metabolic benefits for different walking situations. Toward this goal, this paper experimentally evaluates the influence of an author...
