Design of a Portable Pneumatic Exosuit for Knee Extension Assistance with Gait Sensing using Fabric-based Inflatable Insole Sensors

Design of a Portable Pneumatic Exosuit for Knee Extension Assistance with Gait Sensing using Fabric-based Inflatable Insole Sensors

abstract: Current exosuit technologies utilizing soft inflatable actuators for gait assistance have drawbacks of having slow dynamics and limited portability. The first part of this thesis focuses on addressing the aforementioned issues by using inflatable actuator composites (IAC) and a portable pn...
