On the Control of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) (2005, background): “The overall concept of this lower extremity exoskeleton is that the human provides an intelligent control system for the exoskeleton while the exoskeleton actuators provide most of the strength necessary for walking [1,2].”
Recent developments and challenges of lower extremity exoskeletons (2015, background): “The Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX), shown in Figure 3A, was developed to help soldiers to carry heavy loads [20,36].”
On the mechanical design of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) (2005, methodology): “9 MPa (1000 psi), the BLEEX actuators are sized to provide the joint torques seen in CGA data [24].”
Lower Limb Wearable Robots for Assistance and Rehabilitation: A State of the Art (2016, unknown): “demanding labor [27]–[29].”
Lower Extremity Exoskeletons and Active Orthoses: Challenges and State-of-the-Art (2008, methodology): “The kinematics and actuation requirements of the exoskeleton were designed by assuming behavior similar to that of a 75 kg human and utilizing clinical gait analysis data for walking [24], [25].”
Hybrid Control of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) (2006, background): “The overall concept of this lower extremity exoskeleton is that the human provides an intelligent control system for the exoskeleton while the exoskeleton actuators provide most of the strength necessary for walking [1,2].”
The evolution of robotics research (2007, background): “HAL-5, from the University of Tsukuba/CYBERDYNE, Inc., Japan, and the system by Berkeley Robotics Laboratory, Berkeley, CA (see Figure 9) [ 85 ] appear to be the first of a platoon of considerably more capable exoskeletons aimed at real-world uses that may soon, quite literally, be walking near you.”
A lightweight soft exosuit for gait assistance (2013, background): “Over the last two decades, a number of exoskeletons have been developed for tasks ranging from heavy lifting [1] to helping the wearer to walk [2-6] and for providing robotic rehabilitation therapy in a hospital setting [7].”
State of the Art and Future Directions for Lower Limb Robotic Exoskeletons (2017, background): “The Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton's (BLEEX) goal was to develop a portable robotic exoskeleton that allowed soldiers to carry heavy loads over long distances [7]–[10].”
