The first day of #WearRACon was a success. A lot of great talks and speakers. To top it all off, the HeroWear team launched our first product, the Apex #exosuit. Check out https://t.co/w0n4dBIMTC to learn more about our new tech! #wearabletech#exoskeleton#ergonomics
Meet the world’s first exo for all: the HeroWear Apex. It’s lightweight, comfortable, effective. And custom-designed for working men and women.
See for yourself: Step inside the suit. https://t.co/O8me5EykLZ

A recent PLOS One publication includes Humotech’s robotic actuator in a look at how comfort limits of forces applied to the shoulders, thigh and shank inform #exosuit design. Read more at https://t.co/9zYIK3M6Zy

@KarlZelik It was blast pulling off this study (pun intended). Check out @KarlZelik 's great summary of this work and its potential to inform the future of #exoskeleton and #exosuit research!
So… We pulled on people with a robot until they told us to stop. Turns out you can yank on shank, thigh & shoulders w/ about one full body weight of force (on avg) before people reach their comfort limit. This work informs design of assistive #exosuits 1/

2020 research resolution: continue to FAIL FREQUENTLY. My first day as a grad student (3.5 years ago!), @KarlZelik sent me this article about "productive scientific stupidity" that I circle back to at the start of every term. #PhDlife#AcademicChatter

In the spring, Vanderbilt announced a partnership with @armyfutures to apply research and innovation to real-world needs. Read more from the U.S. Army about how the ideas from that partnership are becoming practical resources for soldiers. https://t.co/suxKtX3GMw
