Hybrid Exoskeleton, 2014-2015
In this project, I explored hybridizing a full-body exoskeleton with a supernumerary robotic limb system which could provide either improved strength or multi-tasking capabilities depending on the user's situation.
In exoskeleton mode, the suit would mirror the user's arms and legs, providing extra strength and support. In supernumerary mode, the arms would move above the user and the legs outward, and could be controlled via voice commands. The suit was designed in Solidworks and controlled via Arduino.
