Our new hip exo has control of both flexion-extension and ad/abduction torques, which we’ll use to study balance. w/ Vince Chiu & @MichaelRaitor in TMRB.
Let the pilot testing fun begin! ?
After being in lockdown for what feels like eternity, it’s finally time to play with these @humotech ankle exoskeletons!
This #MemorialDay, as we honor those who gave their lives defending our country…
We’re turning our spotlight on our collaborators in testing and evaluation of the prosthetic foot emulator at the DoD’s Center for the Intrepid (CFI).
Bravo to Beth Halsne for finishing first place in the #UW3MT competition!

Humotech Portable Caplex System with Bilateral EXO-005s
The portable Caplex system incorporates two servo-motors and drives, real-time control hardware and I/O in a compact, consolidated package for high-performance actuation of Humotech or other cable-actuated end-effectors. BCK-001 is designed to either be worn with a backpack harness or set up on a table for benchtop use. We hope to empower researchers who wish […]
Interesting #hip #exoskeleton powered by #Caplex in action at @UNOmaha.
Philippe Malcolm, Arash Mohammadzadeh Gonabadi & the @UNOBiomechanics team are exploring a hybrid exosuit/exoskeleton design to assist folks with peripheral artery disease walk with less effort. #Biomechanics
Inspiring video of @Stanford’s hip-knee-ankle #exoskeleton #emulator that’s powered & controlled by #Caplex hardware!
They’re working towards reducing the metabolic cost of various gaits with this comfortable & compliant device. @StanfordEng @StevenHCollins @g_m_bryan @p_franks_
Awesome to see #ultra #runner @NCrunnerjacky putting a custom #Caplex system at @CREATEatVandy through its paces!
Thanks to Jacky and our friends at @VanderbiltU for this exciting research on advanced #prosthetic #feet. #AmputeeLife #AssistiveDevices @DavidZiemnicki @KarlZelik
We recently delivered a #Caplex system to our first international customer: @QueensU in Canada!
Really excited to be working with Jess Selinger, @MeganMcAll_Kin, and others at the #Neuromechanics Lab. #Innovation #Humotech
Nice work by one of our DoD CFI colleagues Lauren Brousseau
She received an award at SAMC’s Omer Day for Most Outstanding Research in the Field of #Neuromusculoskeletal #Rehabilitation for her work investigating the predictive validity of in-lab test-driving of #prosthetic feet.
