Our latest research article published in the Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation. It highlights the interplay between ankle moments, muscle forces, and energy demands during swing phase ankle dorsiflexion. Our findings offer guidance for the development of assistive power sources for passive and low-power Ankle-Foot Orthoses (AFOs), ensuring they accommodate the biomechanical realities of human movement.
We have implemented these critical findings in the design of our Self-Powered Ankle Exoskeleton (Spaexo). Employing the observations made in this article, Spaexo effectively harvests adequate energy and applies it at the efficient time to avoid low foot-ground clearance at the critical event of Minimum Foot Clearance (MFC).
Pitched successfully at the state library of victoria-CSIRO on prime program 2023
We are thrilled to announce our successful pitch for the Self-Powered Ankle Exoskeleton (SPAE) at the State Library of Victoria - CSIRO on Prime 2023. This significant achievement showcases the transformative potential of the SPAE in empowering individuals with gait impairments, preventing falls, and promoting sustainability. We received enthusiastic feedback and strong interest, reinforcing our commitment to revolutionize mobility and improve lives through innovative assistive technology. Stay tuned as we continue our journey towards bringing the SPAE to the market and making a positive impact on a global scale.
