Intelligent Modular Robotic ExoSuit

社会上有相当多的人患有一系列残疾或慢性病，使他们无法充分参与日常生活的所有活动。有三个核心群体的个人与低于正常的身体能力和能力有关：一）从出生起就有某种形式的先天残疾;二）由于疾病、疾病或事故而失去部分身体能力和能力的人;以及三）老年人，由于老龄化过程，人口中越来越多的人逐渐失去能力和能力。还有一类人虽有正常能力，但经常从事繁重的工作和活动，因此容易对健康造成潜在危险和伤害，因此需要支助。最近的技术进步为设计、开发和实施一系列智能模块化机器人系统提供了机会，以解决与所有这些类别相关的一系列问题。Mechatech Ltd与利兹大学合作正在开发一种机器人外骨骼原型，该原型将用作进一步研究和开发辅助和增强机器人外骨骼的基础。

Significant numbers of people in society suffer from a range of disabilities or chronic conditions which prevent them from fully engaging in all activities of daily living. There are three core groups of individuals associated with lower than normal physical capacity and capability: i) those with some form of congenital disability from birth; ii) those who due to illness, disease or accident lose some portion of their physical capacity and capability and iii) the elderly, a growing proportion of the population who gradually lose capacity and capability as a result of the ageing process. There is also another category who have normal capabilities but are constantly involved in heavy duty tasks and activities and hence prone to potential health dangers and injuries and therefore need support. Recent advances in technology afford opportunities for the design, development and implementation of a range of intelligent modular robotic systems to address a range of problems associated with all of these categories. Mechatech Ltd, in collaboration with the University of Leeds is developing a Robotic Exoskeleton Prototype, which will be used as a base for further research and development of Assistive and Enhancive Robotic Exoskeletons.
