Research

To fully understand the interactions between a user and an external device, a multidisciplinary approach, including modeling/simulation, design optimzation, and human experiments, is required.   Bio-Mechantronics and Robotics Laboratory (BMRL) uses these strategies in designing biomechanical energy harvesters and exoskeletons, studying load carriage, and developing inertial sensor-based algorithms for human movement analysis.
