student project, TU Dresden, 2018
In the project, the focus was on designing an ergonomic Soft Exosuit that facilitates the user in analyzing and evaluating their physical activities. The integrated sensors within the suit record all relevant data of the athlete. Based on this data, the Soft Exosuit is intended to exert targeted force on the musculoskeletal system of the athlete, thereby enhancing their training level with precisely the required level of strain. Rowing was chosen as an exemplary sport for this purpose, given its performance-oriented nature and the high acceptance of using technical aids and sophisticated training plans to precisely train elite athletes. This project was realized in collaboration with students of media informatics.
