Study – Impact of the Japet.W exoskeleton on muscular activity during load carrying
Results of the study conducted by Japet on the impact of the exoskeleton on muscular activity during load carrying.
Context
The objective of the study* is to analyze the impact of Japet.W exoskeleton on abdominal-lumbar belt muscles.
* Study in progress. Here are highlighted preliminary results.
Method
Electromyograms were located on abdominal muscles, external obliques and lumbar muscles to measure muscular activity in the abdominal-lumbar belt. Participants simulated handling movements with and without Japet.W exoskeleton.
Result
We can conclude from this study that the muscular activity of the abdominolumbar region is maintained while wearing the Japet exoskeleton.
