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: An isolation room system comprising a plurality of walls defining a first chamber; and including an air filtration system that pulls air from within at least the first chamber through a filter.

Abstract: A lower-leg exoskeleton that includes an inflatable actuator configured to be worn over a front portion of a leg of a user and configured to be disposed directly adjacent to and surrounding a joint of the leg of the user. The inflatable actuator is configured, when worn by the user, to receive and transmit an actuator load generated by the inflatable actuator around the joint of the user to a load contact point. Inflation of the inflatable actuator generates a moment about the joint of the user to cause flexion of the leg of the user.

Abstract: A method of configuring a treatment regimen of one or more exoskeleton systems in an exoskeleton network, the method comprising: receiving exoskeleton data from one or more exoskeleton systems that are operably connected to a network; storing the exoskeleton data from the one or more exoskeleton systems; generating a configuration input for configuring at least one of the one or more exoskeleton systems the configuration input including a replacement for or update to a current medical treatment regimen being implemented by the at least one of the one or more exoskeleton systems; and sending the generated configuration input to the at least one of the one or more exoskeleton systems via the network to cause replacing or updating the current medical treatment regimen being implemented by the at least one of the one or more exoskeleton systems.

Abstract: A fluidic exoskeleton system that comprises a fluidic actuator unit configured to be associated with a user wearing the fluidic exoskeleton system, the fluidic actuator unit including: a rotatable joint a first and second plate coupled to the rotatable joint and an inflatable actuator extending between the first and second plate.

Abstract: A thermal storage system that includes one or more thermal storage tanks having a tank body that defines a tank cavity configured to hold a tank thermal storage medium; a heat exchanger assembly disposed in the tank cavity configured to run a flow of working thermal storage medium through the one or more thermal storage tanks so that heat exchange occurs between the flow of working thermal storage medium and the tank thermal storage medium; one or more cables that extend to one or more rooms of the building; and one or more heat exchange elements disposed within the one or more rooms configured to receive a flow of the working thermal storage medium from the one or more cables so that heat exchange occurs between the flow of the working thermal storage medium and an environment of the one or more rooms of the building.

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.

Abstract: A lower-leg exoskeleton including an inflatable actuator that is configured to be worn over a front portion of a foot of a user; a rigid foot structure coupled to the inflatable actuator that is configured to surround a portion of a foot of the user; and a rigid shin structure coupled to the inflatable actuator and configured to engage the shin of the user. When worn by a user, the lower-leg exoskeleton can receive and transmit an actuator load generated by the inflatable actuator to a load contact point defined by the rigid foot structure which is forward of the heel of a user. Inflation of the inflatable actuator can generate a moment about the ankle of a user to cause flexion of the foot of the user.
