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_
Q&A with Gabriel, Director of Sales
How Humotech can help shape the broader conversation about disability and technology, plus a look at growth and change during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Get Ready for MATLAB R2020a, Plus a Range of New Features
Humotech’s Q3 software release includes an upgrade to MATLAB R2020a, dynamic controller configuration, and unlimited recording.
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
The Bridge From Research to Patient Care
Researchers at the VA Center for Limb Loss and MoBility are improving the patient prescription process by bringing together research, clinician knowledge, and patient care.
