Wearable Robotics

A series of experiments including torque output tests, transparency tests, cardiopulmonary exercise tests and surface electromyography tests with five healthy subjects (height, 1.76 ± 0.05 m; weight, 72.5 ± 7.26 kg; age, 27.2 ± 2.86 years; all male) to validate the effectiveness of the SPURS. All participants provided written informed consent to participate in the study.

Visual systems can improve transitions between different locomotion mode controllers (e.g., level-ground walking to stair ascent) by sensing the walking environment prior to physical interactions. Here we developed StairNet to support the development of vision-based stair recognition systems for robotic leg control. The dataset builds on ExoNet – the largest open-source dataset of egocentric images of real-world walking environments.
