The objective of this laboratory study was to assess the cardiorespiratory consequences related to the use of different back-support exoskeletons during a repetitive lifting task. Fourteen women and thirteen men performed a dynamic stoop…

INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have observed that the use of passive and active occupational back-support exoskeletons could reduce the stress on the lower back muscles during manual handling tasks. However, the magnitude of the benefits…

The robotic back assistance exoskeletons aim to provide strong support to operators during physical work tasks, and thus contribute to the prevention of lower back pain. However, the contribution of robotic technologies remains little studied…
