Abstract:This study tested 10 engineering students at Liberty University to determine the effect of various shoulder angles and support level settings on the perceived weight reduction of upper extremity exoskeletons (EXOs). It also examined the impact of support levels and the choice of two different EXOs. Effectiveness was determined by finding the minimum discrete value of a variable weight in a participant’s EXO supported arm at which the participant would assert that they could hold a control weight in their other… Show more
