Innovative exoskeleton mechanics

The authors have developed an integrated approach and technology for building an exoskeleton that minimizes human energy expenditures while walking. Optimized torque characteristics from an exoskeleton worn on one knee have reduced metabolic and electrical energy consumption. Studies have shown practical value and significance for application, namely, the lift increase of the exoskeleton and possibilities opening in medicine, for rescuers, tourists. Comparative analysis showed the way to solve the problems of mechanics when creating an exoskeleton to improve the quality of performing complex tasks.
