A Temple University Assistant Professor is bringing exoskeletons out of the lab and into the home.
As the head of the Robotics in Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering (RISE) laboratory at Temple Engineering, Dr. Jacobs researches the design and the control of wearable robots for gait assistance and rehabilitation. His long-term goal is to characterize the neuromechanics—the symbiotic combination of neuroscience and biomechanics—of robot-assisted locomotion to create adaptive, multi-function exoskeletons for walking.
