    Area of Science:

    • Biomechanics
    • Rehabilitation Engineering

    Background:

    • Exoskeletons offer mobility assistance but require evaluation of user loading.
    • Understanding upper extremity weight-bearing is crucial for safe exoskeleton use in rehabilitation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To quantify upper extremity loading during exoskeleton-assisted walking.
    • To assess the safety and suitability of the UNILEXA passive exoskeleton for rehabilitation.

    Main Methods:

    • Instrumented platform walker used to measure vertical load.
    • Data collected from two participants during walking and standing tasks.

    Main Results:

    • Average vertical load during walking was ~30% of body weight.
    • Peak loads up to 90% of body weight observed during standing maneuvers.

    Conclusions:

    • The UNILEXA passive exoskeleton demonstrates acceptable upper extremity loading.
    • Findings support the exoskeleton's potential for safe and effective rehabilitation applications.
