The AI-based controller gives improved metabolic reductions in comparison to conventional assistance approaches with no specific tuning needed! The system can function in multiple real-word terrains with varying slopes.

The dataset used to train the deep learning models and the CAD for the exoskeleton is all available for other researchers to use in their own work. hdl.handle.net/1853/76519

Proud and excited to finally share this awesome project in Nature! We used a real-time data-driven estimate of biological joint moment as a continuous, task-agnostic signal to base our exoskeleton actuator torque around. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Engineers in @MEGeorgiaTech @GT_EPIC_Lab have created an AI-driven controller for robotic exoskeletons that helps users in dozens of real-world tasks — even those it wasn’t trained for. Out today in @Nature: b.gatech.edu/40Eq75C

Wearable robots that assist leg movements could transform the lives of people with reduced mobility — but only if the devices can adapt in real time to support a vast range of human activities go.nature.com/48LTvZy

Robotic exoskeleton adapts to changes in leg movements in real time

Nature - Control system enables robot to support wide range of leg movements.

We’ve also released the 25-participant dataset of human biomechanics and exoskeleton sensor data used to train and validate our approach, including activities like walking, running, jumping, and cutting: repository.gatech.edu/handle…

Generalizing exoskeleton control across activities is a key challenge in bridging the gap to real-world viability. Our work contributes directly to this challenge – leveraging human biomechanics opposed to discretized descriptions of human movement.
