The universe linked to exoskeletons is made up of a thousand different nuances. There are devices that increase performance, others that support the back, still others dedicated to people with disabilities. Finally, others add functions to functions, multiplying the possibility of carrying out actions. This is the case of "redundant" devices. Having two arms is comfortable and natural, but the opportunities increase considerably if we have four. There is a limit, however, and it is currently represented by the user interface, which is often complicated to use. It would be better … Read more
