Evaluating back support provided by a passive exoskeleton

The Auxivo LiftSuit functions as an external set of back muscles while lifting or leaning forward. In the RELab Homelab we can capture changes in muscle activity using electromyography sensors and changes in movement with a 3D camera system (as seen in the picture). Exoskeletons like the LiftSuit can play an important role in protection the health of people with physically demanding jobs.
