On 30 August, Robo-Mate presented the final prototypes of its three modules to companies in Sibiu, Romania
With the results from the lab tests in mind, Robo-Mate partner IIT has improved the final prototype of the Robo-Mate trunk module in three main areas: weight, comfort and motion speed.
The first tests are over: To assess usability, effectiveness and efficiency, eight persons have performed 3 tasks with and without exoskeleton modules in the Robo-Mate labs in Switzerland. The main result: The modules are effective and efficient, but usability has to be improved.
Robo-Mate has tested its three modules in ZHAW's labs in Winterthur, Switzerland. The lab tests serve a twofold purpose: First, results can be used to adjust either the prototype or the testing plan for the tests in real industrial scenarios. Second, in a controlled environment engineers can include a number of measurements that they could not include in an industrial scenario (for example with EMG, force plate, and video recording).
