Stanford's new mechatronic boots were made for walkin'.
This adorable robotic turtle can swim and walk on land“This exoskeleton personalizes assistance as people walk normally through the real world,” Steve Collins, an associate professor of mechanical engineering heading the Biomechatronics Lab, said in ayesterday, adding that recent tests “resulted in exceptional improvements in walking speed and energy economy.
These myriad mobility details were then fed into a machine learning model, which is then used by the boots to customize and adjust to a user’s movements in real time.Engineers hope their exoskeleton will pave the way for new mobility assistance for both elderly populations and disabled communities dealing with reduced mobility issues.
