Abstract: Team Excelsoir's Prototype is a fully functional wearable exoskeleton arm that moves in sync with the operator's motion within 3 DOFs.Thanks to this device the user will no longer feel any fatigue in carrying heavy loads for long time periods.Recyclable, light and enduring materials are used in this project in order to fulfill safety and environmental concerns.Pneumatic muscles are placed cloning the human anatomy to provide absolute synchronization with ordinary human motion.Biceps, triceps and deltoids are assisted by the device and limited according to their allowable angles of motion.The exoskeleton arm can specifically be used in physiotherapeutic treatment and to aid people with difficulties in mobility and also in the heavy industry.The project officially precedes the Middle-Eastern market record by being the first of its kind.This project is sponsored by Festo.Festo is a worldwide leading supplier of pneumatic and electrical automation technology.
