AI4EXO - Improving wearability and acceptance of AI-driven human-centered robotics

From 01-11-2022 to 31-10-2023

Description

The AI4Exo project will further advance a robotic exoskeleton designed to alleviate physical work, through the development and implementation of advanced AI. The project is starting from existing and leading expertise, present in all three partners, as well as existing hardware, allowing for a fast start without relying on a lengthy design and development cycle which is typically there in robotics research.
The project will allow the teams to make a major leap forward towards market readiness of the robotic exoskeleton and the individual underlying technologies. There is a concrete path to provide a return to society via, amongst others, 2 existing spin-offs, pushing towards improved healthcare and rehabilitation, reduced work- related injuries and in general improving the field of human-centered robotics.
