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 performing a fit test on an actuator unit coupled to a user. The method includes determining a first configuration of the actuator unit while the actuator unit is in an un-actuating state and while the user is in a fit test position; actuating the actuator unit; determining a second configuration of the actuator unit generated in response to the actuating the leg actuator unit; determining a change in configuration of the actuator unit based at least in part on the difference between the first and second configuration; and determining that the change in configuration corresponds to an improper fit of the actuator unit to the user.

Abstract: A computer implemented method of semi-supervised intent recognition for an exoskeleton system. In one aspect, the method includes, in response to a state transition intention input, changing the exoskeleton system from operating in a first mode with sensitivity to detecting state transitions at a first sensitivity level to operating in a second mode with sensitivity to detecting state transitions at a second sensitivity level that is more sensitive than the first sensitivity level; identifying a state transition while operating in the second mode and using the second sensitivity level; and facilitating the identified state transition by actuating the exoskeleton system.

Abstract: A method of operating an exoskeleton system that includes obtaining a first set of sensor data from one or more sensors associated with one or more leg actuator units of an exoskeleton system during a user activity, the first set of sensor data indicating a first configuration state of the one or more actuator units; determining, based at least in part on the first set of obtained sensor data, to change configuration of the one or more leg actuator units to a second configuration state to support a user during the user activity; and introducing fluid to one or more fluidic actuators of the one or more leg actuator units to generate the second configuration state by causing the one or more fluidic actuators to apply force at the one or more actuator units.

Abstract: A lower-leg exoskeleton that includes an actuator configured to be worn about a portion a leg of a user that is below the knee of the user; and a foot structure coupled to a first actuator end of the actuator, the foot structure configured to surround a portion of the foot of the user. The foot structure includes one or more sidewalls configured to extend around the foot of the user and including one or more sidewall attachment points for connecting to a base portion, and a base portion configured to reside at a base of the foot of the user and including one or more base attachment points coupling with the one or more sidewall attachment points.

Abstract: A fluidic exoskeleton system. The system can include one or more fluidic actuator units that have: a joint; a first and second arm coupled to the joint; an inflatable bellows actuator extending between a first and second plate associated with the joint, the inflatable bellows actuator defining a bellows cavity, the inflatable bellows actuator configured to extend along a length of the bellows actuator when inflated by introducing fluid into the bellows cavity; and one or more constraint ribs extending from the joint and surrounding portions of the bellows actuator along the length of the bellows actuator.
