Usability and performance validation of an ultra-lightweight and versatile untethered robotic ankle exoskeleton

Abstract Background Ankle exoskeletons can improve walking mechanics and energetics, but few untethered devices have demonstrated improved performance and usability across a wide range of users and terrains. Our goal was to design and validate a lightweight untethered ankle exoskeleton that was effe...
