Soft modular biomimetic exoskeleton to assist people with mobility impairments

Livrables

User centred XoSoft Vision and PSS Concept

A document detailing a combination of visual materials describing the concept (Storyboards, Renderings and 3D CAD work, videos and images of sketch model work), physical concepts (passive mock-ups) and a report outlining the vision for the concept relative to the needs of each of the three users. The document will outline the PSS for the concept and will align the users’ needs (M6).

Soft mechanical sensors

This report will include a comparison of different smart material technologies for sensing and the selection and optimization of the ones fitting better the application of this project. The sensors using these materials will be optimized to measure the desired physical values (strain, force, bending, etc.) (M12).

Exoskeleton Cluster Day and Final XoSoft Symposium

EU project gathering to discuss RTD challenges in exoskeleton development and presenting XoSoft results to the scientific community (M35).

End-user demo at tradeshows (XoSoft end-user roadshow)

Display demonstrator at international exhibitions at OSSUR stand or other partners (M30).
