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: An exoskeleton system comprising: one or more actuator units that comprise a fluidic actuator; an exoskeleton device; one or more cables, the one or more cables comprising a first cable extending from the exoskeleton device to a first actuator unit of the one or more actuator units; and a retractable cable assembly coupled to the first cable, with the retractable cable assembly configured to pull the first cable to reduce slack in the first cable.

Abstract: An exoskeleton system comprising at least one actuator unit that includes a fluidic actuator; an exoskeleton device including a fluidic system, and electronics; and a first cable extending from the exoskeleton device to the at least one actuator unit.

Abstract: An exoskeleton system comprising: a power system that powers the exoskeleton system, the power system including one or more battery slots, and a modular battery set that includes one or more battery units that are modular such that any of the one or more battery units can be readily and quickly removed and coupled within any of the one or more battery slots to provide power to the exoskeleton system.

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.
