Smart Exoskeleton: Enhancing Human Capability Through Wearable Robotics
Smart exoskeletons are wearable robotic systems designed to augment, assist, or restore human movement and strength. These advanced devices combine mechanical structures with smart sensors, actuators, and AI-driven control systems to enable enhanced physical performance in a variety of applications. From assisting individuals with mobility impairments to improving endurance and safety for industrial workers, smart exoskeletons are redefining the intersection between human physiology and robotic technology.
These wearable devices are commonly used in sectors such as healthcare, military, industrial manufacturing, and construction. In rehabilitation, they help patients regain mobility post-injury or surgery. In industrial settings, smart exoskeletons reduce fatigue and injury risk by supporting lifting and repetitive tasks. Military applications focus on improving soldiers’ endurance and strength in the field.
With the integration of AI and IoT, modern smart exoskeletons can adapt in real time to user movement and environmental factors. Lightweight materials, energy-efficient components, and customizable fits are further advancing their usability, making them more practical for daily and professional use.
