Physical interface dynamics alter how robotic exosuits augment human movement: implications for optimizing wearable assistive devices

Abstract Background Wearable assistive devices have demonstrated the potential to improve mobility outcomes for individuals with disabilities, and to augment healthy human performance; however, these benefits depend on how effectively power is transmitted from the device to the human user. Quantifyi...
