Engineering the Future of Mobility
A broad interdisciplinary team of engineers and clinicians at the University of Dayton are leveraging an 8 degree-of-freedom Caplex system configured with bilateral ankle and hip exoskeletons to accelerate research into how aging affects biomechanics. In addition, the team is trailblazing with novel approaches to incorporating the programmable wearable robotic system into both undergraduate and graduate coursework, increasing opportunities for hands-on learning and familiarizing students with these essential tools to set them up for success in their careers.
