AME - Wearable Robotics Laboratory

We research the control, mechanical design, and state estimation of wearable robots, such as robotic prostheses and exoskeletons. Our interdisciplinary group applies biomechanics and mechatronics with a research focus on tractable real-time optimization. Our purpose is to improve the quality of life for people and contribute to being a force of good.
