Researchers creating personalized robotic limb to reduce work intensity
Researching robotic ankle-foot device optimization research in Professor Myunghee Kim’s Rehabilitation Robotics Laboratory
"Assistant professors Myunghee Kim and Heejin Jeong, both in mechanical and industrial engineering at UIC, are collaborating to develop a personalized lower-limb assistive wearable robot that reduces human effort during physically intensive activities. It will be an “embodied intelligent system,” meaning that it senses environments and users and provides action through mechanical assistance to the user’s joints."
