Development and Biomechanical Evaluation of a Back Exoskeleton to Support Lifting Tasks
Musculoskeletal disorders, particularly lower back pain, are common among healthcare workers due to frequent lifting, bending, and prolonged standing. To address this issue, we developed a lightweight, soft, and active exoskeleton designed to support lifting movements while maintaining user mobility...
