At this workshop, you will learn about types of industrial exoskeletons, the kinds of jobs that they can be used in, and precautions that should be taken when considering exoskeletons. Vendors will demonstrate their exoskeletons. Researchers will discuss the impact of exoskeletons on the body. Users of exoskeletons will share their experiences (good and bad) with exoskeletons. Learning Objectives: List the types of exoskeletons available for industrial use Discuss the impact of exoskeletons on the body Describe precautions to take when considering exoskeletons for industrial use
