First seen Mar 11, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 10 times

Summary

This study looks at how a robotic hip brace (exoskeleton) changes the way healthy adults walk. Researchers will measure step length, speed, muscle activity, and foot pressure while people walk with different levels of assistance from the device. The goal is to understand how the exoskeleton affects natural walking, which could help design better assistive devices in the future. 15 healthy adults aged 19 and older will participate.
