DESCRIPTION:AnyBody Technology has used its CAD simulation software with exoskeletons since at least 2015! As someone who loves computer-aided design\, I can appreciate how the company tries to provide an alternative to human-in-the-loop or test dummies with internal load cell testing. After all\, getting reliable information about what happens inside the body is challenging\, even with the best EMG technology. This webinar will present body capture data fed into the AnyBody model to evaluate occupational exoskeletons. Sounds interesting! \nDate:  \n\nOctober 10\, 2024 at 09.00 (CEST) & 17.00 (CEST)\nOctober 10\, 2024 at 12am (PST) & 8am (PST)\n\n“In a time of talent shortages and an aging workforce\, there is an increasing need for a better understanding of physical stress in the workplace in order to better protect workers from musculoskeletal disorders. Occupational exoskeletons in the workplace could be a promising and flexible ergonomic solution to prevent musculoskeletal disorders\, but they are not yet sufficiently understood. \nThe presentation will outline and discuss the results of a modeling study within the research project DigitalExonomics. The AnyBody Modeling SystemTM was used to evaluate the biomechanical effectiveness of existing occupational exoskeletons. For this purpose\, motion data was collected in realistic use cases that were digitally planned and set up together with relevant industry stakeholders. Further\, a methodological approach for the assessment of intended and unintended effects was developed to investigate the complex biomechanical interaction of exoskeletons with the human musculoskeletal system.” \n\n\n\nRead more about the webcast and secure your seat here: \n\n09.00 (CEST) registration\n17.00 (CEST) registration\n\nPresented by: M.Sc.

DESCRIPTION:Attention Spanish innovators and creators: The Gogoa Prize 2024 MedTech Design Challenge registration deadline is May 30th\, 2024! \nWho can participate:\nThis friendly competition is open to students of any discipline of Engineering and Technology who are pursuing a Bachelor’s\, Master’s\, or Postgraduate studies from 2023-2024. The competition is focused on Spain\, but it doesn’t hurt to reach out to the organizers and confirm language and regional guidelines and limitations. You can participate individually or in teams of up to 4 people. \nThe challenge:\nDesign of an exoskeleton to assist the motor skills of the elderly. Do you think medical exoskeletons are too expensive or too slow? How would you approach them? For example\, we (ExR) have seen companies like Seismic use coiled ropes to bypass the need for transmission to transform high-speed low-torque rotation to low-speed high-torque linear movement\, which is not too different from a Roman catapult. It doesn’t have to be a high-tech\, complicated idea for it to be good! \nVisit https://www.gogoa.eu/en/gogoaprize for registration\, evaluation criteria\, and additional information. \nAnnounced is a  €1\,000+ award from Gogoga Mobility Robots\, in addition to a communication blast by the company for the winner or winning team! \nWill you participate in Cybathlon 2024\, the ASTM ExoGames 2024\, or the Gogoa Challenge!? This year is full of opportunities for students to make a difference and be recognized in the field of wearable robotics! \n

SUMMARY:Webinar: Buy America for Exoskeletons by ASTM International
DESCRIPTION:ASTM International is proud to host the webinar titled Buy America: Domestic Preferences for Exoskeleton Procurements. \nThis webinar could be vital and informative for exoskeleton producers\, suppliers\, and investors if they have any aspirations to sell wearables to the US government. It is cumbersome\, but those wishing to engage in sales with US government agencies may be required to explain where their exoskeletons were made and sourced. Just like dealing with the FDA for medical exoskeletons\, it is better to know in advance what requirements may be placed on exoskeleton developers and their products. ASTM International is providing this webinar free of charge\, but registration is required. \n“During this webinar\, you’re going to be able to understand how sourcing and manufacturing components for your exoskeletons can potentially exclude you from prospective customers. As you know\, the [US] government spends a lot of money buying things and often sets numerous requirements for the things that it buys\, and that includes exo technology. They focus not only on safety and environmental sustainability but also things like ‘where did materials come from’ and ‘where were these materials transformed and manufactured into the final product?’ The ASTM International Buy America: Domestic Preferences for Exoskeleton Procurements webinar will go over these types of requirements\, how they could be applied to you in your industry\, as well as what they could mean for you as an exoskeleton developer. We hope you join the webinar.” – Nora Nimmerichter\, Technical Committee Operations Manager at ASTM International via LinkedIn. \nAbout the Presenter:\n“Paul Hurst serves as the chair of Steptoe’s Government Contracts Group. He’s ranked in Chambers USA\, and their recent client feedback said he ‘is extremely knowledgeable about all of the complex government regulations that deal with contracting and matters related to small business association contracts.’ Legal 500 US noted Paul attracts praise for his ‘deep knowledge’ and ‘keen analysis of the issues.’ He has significant experience in complex civil litigation and regularly represents government contractors in the defense\, construction\, and healthcare industry. He litigates bid protests at the General Accountability Office\, the Court of Federal Claims\, the Small Business Administration\, and state and local forums\, as well as disputes involving contracts\, fraud\, construction-related claims\, RICO\, and intellectual property pending in federal courts and state courts across the nation. Paul also has substantial experience with other government contracts-related litigation\, ADR\, and proceedings\, including claims\, internal investigations\, government audits and investigations\, reverse FOIA matters\, and civil False Claims Act and qui tam actions. He also counsels clients on matters relating to federal procurement statutes and regulations\, including compliance\, contract changes\, the False Claims Act\, the Anti-Assignment Act\, Small Business contracting\, federal procurement\, procurement integrity\, and corporate counseling for mergers and acquisitions involving government contractors. Paul previously participated in the firm’s Legal Aid Loaned Associate Program. As a loaned associate\, he gained a tremendous amount of trial experience representing indigent clients in matters pending before the Superior Court for the District of Columbia.” \nAbout Buy America:\nNot to be confused with “Buy American\,” the Buy America Act was established in 1982 mainly to regulate steel and transportation supplies. Over time\, however\, it has expanded to include some fabric materials\, and its requirements have seeped to touch wearables and exoskeleton products. For those looking to make and sell exoskeletons for US government agencies\, such as the Army\, it is vital to know in advance what expectations might be placed upon them. \nRegistration link:\nYou can register for ASTM International Buy America: Domestic Preferences for Exoskeleton Procurements Webinar here: link \nTime: Wed\, Mar 15\, 9:30 AM – 10:30 AM PDT

SUMMARY:Presentation: Human-Centered Design of Exoskeletons
DESCRIPTION:The National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine is hosting a free one-hour public session of the meeting of the Board on Human-Systems Integration. The topic of choice will be a discussion of a potential project on human-centered design principles for the development and application of powered and passive exoskeleton technology. \nThe discussion will look at what the future of work could look like? How can we keep improving labor-intensive activities that are known to lead to ergonomics-related worker risk for injuries? \nThe event will be led by Christopher Reid\, HFES – Human Factors and Ergonomics Society\, and Dr. William S. Marras from the Spine Research Institute\, The Ohio State University for The National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine’s Board of Human Systems Integration (BOHSI). The presentation will be open to the public for virtual attendance. \nTime: June 2\, 2022; 10:40-11:40 AM EDT \nRegistration Link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/human-centered-design-of-exoskeletons-tickets-344799573807 \nWhy this presentation could be of interest:\nBoth presenters have years of experience in evaluating exoskeleton technology. There is ample evidence to demonstrate that earlier design validation with test users leads to better product results. It is curious what these two experts have to say on the subject and how they envision both the future of exoskeleton technology and the integration of human evaluation earlier in the design and prototype stages.

SUMMARY:IARx2022 First Ibero-American Symposium on Robotic Rehabilitation
DESCRIPTION:EXOesqueleto REHAB in collboration with LATAMNOVA.TECH\, is organizing the First Ibero-American Symposium on Robotic Rehabilitation from May 23-26\, 2022\, via streaming. The main objective of the symposium is to promote the use of healthcare robotics technology at a Latin American level. To achieve this\, the organizers have confirmed world-class experts such as Ángel-Gil Agudo (president of the Ibero-American Association of Supportive Technologies for Disability ) and Marie André Destarac (Dr. in Robotics and Project Manager of Marsi Bionics\, creators of the first exoskeleton for children in the world). \nIARx2022 will be a virtual Symposium that will take place over four half-days from May 23 to 26\, 2022 starting at 9:00 AM Chile time (GMT -3). There will be a different theme for each day (from healthcare robotics to local experiences)\, including at the end of each day a round table to exchange opinions (along with guests\, directors\, and persons of interest). You can find an extensive brochure with all speakers\, additional information\, and registration at the IARx2022 website hosted on LATAMNOVA: link. \nThe majority of IARx2022  presentations will be in Spanish. \nWhy Ibero-America?\nThe First Ibero-American Symposium on Robotic Rehabilitation organizers see a significant gap between the technological utilization\, such as medial exoskeletons\, in Spain and Latam. IARx2022 is an opportunity to transfer positive experiences from Europe to Latam. The organizers see a delay in leveraging rehabilitation robotics in Latam in particular. The event aims to address the lack of technical knowledge and the perception of high or unattainable investment thresholds. The symposium will increase visibility and awareness of the new technological capabilities and gather vendors who develop innovation while fine-tuning the financial analysis related to investing in the top physical rehabilitation technology. These insights are meant to provide the end-users with the best solutions possible. \nAbout the Organizer\nLATAMNOVA.TECH is in the area of conferences and consulting on technology\, Industry 4.0\, and digital transformation. The company has 15 years of experience helping Ibero-American and global companies address their productive challenge through consultancy services and training programs.

SUMMARY:Webcast: AnyBody Technology on Whole-Body Physical Human-Robot Interactions
DESCRIPTION:The digital modeling giant\, AnyBody Technology is inviting everyone to a free webinar(webcast) titled “Automatic ergonomics whole-body motion analysis and physical human-robot interaction.” The webinar will show the results of a pilot study that evaluated the impact of occupational lower-back exoskeletons\, specifically the Laevo\, Corfor\, CrayX\, and backX. The webcast will take place twice on Monday\, February 28 at 9am CET (12 at night Pacific Time) and 5pm CET (8 am Pacific Time). \nYou can find additional information and registration instructions on the AnyBody Tech website: https://www.anybodytech.com/events/ \nFig 1 from Using exoskeletons to assist medical staff during prone positioning of mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients: a pilot study\nThe study mentioned in the webinar is most likely: Using exoskeletons to assist medical staff during prone positioning of mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients: a pilot study by S Ivaldi\, P Maurice and 12 additional authors\, Published in AHFE 11\, February 2021. \nFull text from AnyBody Technology:\nSome work activities in industry are commonly executed by workers in a non-ergonomic fashion\, which may lead to musculoskeletal disorders in the short or in the long term. WMSDs are known to be caused by multiple factors\, such as repetitive motion\, excessive force\, and awkward\, non-ergonomic body postures. Not surprisingly\, work environments with such factors may present an incidence of WMSDs of up to 3 or 4 times higher than in the overall population.\nIn this talk\, we show our approach to evaluate the human motion with respect to ergonomics indexes\, optimize the motion\, and intervene on the task based on the optimized motion. \nIn the first part of the talk\, we show how digital human models can be used to evaluate body posture according to classic ergonomics indexes and/or joint torque estimations. We show how this approach can be extended to evaluate the impact of external agents\, such as robots and exoskeletons\, that may be in physical contact with a human. In particular\, we show the results of a pilot study that evaluated the impact of commercial exoskeletons (Laevo\, Corfor\, CrayX\, BackX) for a typical strenuous activity in the health sector. \nIn the second part\, we propose an approach to improve initial whole-body motions according to one or multiple ergonomics indexes using single- and/or multi-objective optimization. Then\, we make the case that a robot could use physical interactions to drive the human towards more ergonomic whole-body motions\, possibly to an ergonomically optimal motion. \nIn the last part\, we briefly talk about the importance of studying human motor behavior during physical interaction to improve current human-robot collaboration strategies. This is illustrated by preliminary studies on a co-manipulation task executed by a human-human and a human-robot dyad. \nPresented twice February 28\, 2022 by Waldez Gomes\, Post-doc at Université Paris-Saclay\, France \n\nRegister for 9AM (CET)\nRegister for 5PM (CET) \nNote that if you can’t make the webinar\, AnyBody keeps a library of previous programs on their YouTube channel: link

SUMMARY:Webinar: Exoskeletons and Ergonomics: Past\, Present\, and Future
DESCRIPTION:“There is no doubt that ergonomics has made a significant impact on the safety and wellbeing of workers across the globe. For decades there have been reductions in work related musculoskeletal disorders as a result of the hard work and passion of safety and ergonomics professionals. Unfortunately\, certain types of injuries persist for workers who perform physically demanding jobs where there simply are no feasible ergonomic solutions to reduce the risk they face each day. Occupational exoskeleton and exosuit technologies have been emerging for the past decade and we are beginning to see them implemented on a larger scale than ever before with the goals of reducing injuries and turnover\, while improving performance and quality of life. This presentation will cover where exoskeletons and exosuits fit within a comprehensive safety and ergonomics program\, a brief review of the history of these devices\, where they currently stand today\, and what the future might look like for workers in need of support and assistance from exoskeletons and exosuits. ” \nNov. 11\, 2 p.m. EDT\nPresenter: Matthew Marino \nDetails and registration: https://www.iise.org/AEC/details.aspx?id=32856 \nThis is a FREE webinar about exoskeletons in ergonomics from the Applied Ergonomics Society and the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers. \nOrganizers:\nInstitute of Industrial and Systems Engineers & UC Ergonomics Research & Graduate Training Program \nThe presenter\, Matt Marinov (LinkedIn) is a specialist in ergonomics\, sports rehabilitation\, and the evaluation and implementation of exoskeleton technology. He is a frequent speaker at exoskeleton events and always approaches topics from a practical\, hands-on point of view.
