With the aim of strengthening the use of wearable robotics to facilitate human-machine collaboration, Comau and IUVO are partnering with Heidelberg University, a leading research institution. The joint project aims to further quantify the degree to which the MATE-XT exoskeleton can reduce physical stress during strenuous tasks involving repetitive shoulder flexion movements. Notably, the scientific study will analyse the biomechanics of using MATE-XT for new applications, under new conditions and within new industries and outdoor environments, while verifying user learning and motor adaptation speeds.
