Abstract: An exoskeleton system, the exoskeleton system comprising one or more actuator units that include a fluidic actuator, one or more sensors and an exoskeleton device. The exoskeleton device includes a fluidic system, and a processor and memory, the memory storing instructions, that when executed by the processor, are configured to control the exoskeleton system to introduce fluid to the fluidic actuator of the one or more actuator units to cause actuation of the fluidic actuator of the one or more actuator units. The exoskeleton system may be configured to operate in, on or around a body of water and can be water and/or corrosion resistant.

Abstract: A method of operating a modular exoskeleton system, the method comprising: monitoring for one or more actuator units being operably coupled to or removed from the modular exoskeleton system, the modular exoskeleton system comprising at least a first actuator unit configured to be operably coupled and removed from the modular exoskeleton system; determining that the first actuator unit has been operably coupled to the modular exoskeleton system; determining the first actuator unit has been associated with a first body portion of the user; determining a first new operating configuration based at least in part on the determination that the first actuator unit has been operably coupled to the modular exoskeleton system and the determination that the first actuator unit has been associated with the first body portion of the user; and setting the first new operating configuration for the modular exoskeleton system.

Abstract: A method of constructing an inflatable fluidic actuator that includes generating a tube configuration with one or more shapes of fluid-impermeable membrane material, the tube configuration having a first tube end and a second tube end and an internal tube face and an external tube face. The method also includes coupling a first and second interface to the tube configuration at the first and second tube ends by respectively coupling each interface to the tube configuration at a respective tube end by generating at least one of: a first circumferential bond between the fluid-impermeable membrane material and one or more sidewalls of the interface; and an external face bond between fluid-impermeable membrane material at the tube end onto an external face of the interface.

Abstract: A method of constructing an inflatable fluidic actuator. The method includes coupling a first interface to a tube configuration of membrane material at a first tube end by coupling the first interface to the tube configuration at the first tube end by generating at least one of: a first bond between the membrane material and one or more first sidewalls of the first interface and a first external face bond between membrane material at the first tube end onto a first external face of the first interface.

Abstract: A method of operating an exoskeleton system that includes obtaining at an exoskeleton device, sensor data from one or more sensors; and determining, by the exoskeleton device based at least in part on the sensor data, one or more states, including one or more of: at least one state of the exoskeleton system; at least one state of a user wearing the exoskeleton system; and at least one state of a location where the user and exoskeleton system are located. The method further includes determining, by the exoskeleton device, a response based at least in part on the determined one or more states; and generating the response by the exoskeleton device causing actuation of the exoskeleton system.

Abstract: A method of operating an exoskeleton system that includes determining a first state estimate for a current classification program being implemented by the exoskeleton system; determining a second state estimate for a reference classification program; determining that a difference between the first and second state estimate is greater than a classification program replacement threshold; generating an updated classification program; and replacing the current classification program with the updated classification program based at least in part on the determining that the difference between the first and second state estimates is greater than the classification program replacement threshold.

Abstract: An exoskeleton system having an actuator unit configured to be coupled to a leg of a user. The actuator unit includes an upper arm and a lower arm that are rotatably coupled via a joint, the joint positioned at a knee of the user with the upper arm coupled about an upper leg portion of the user above the knee and with the lower arm coupled about a lower leg portion of the user below the knee; a fluidic actuator that extends between the upper arm and lower arm; and one or more fluid lines coupled to the fluidic actuator to introduce fluid to the fluidic actuator that causes force to be applied to the upper arm and lower arm.
