17A-15 Exoskeleton stress test

The Exoskeleton stress test is directed by the test leader Benjamin Knaus. This test serves to measure the freedom of movement in the exoskeleton. During this test, the watching out for discomfort for the exoskeleton tester is very important. Potential hazards within the test are exhaustion, reddened skin and broken equipment. The exoskeleton stress test involves three sub-tests (A-C).

Subtest A: TBC

Subtest B: In this subtest the wearing comfort of the exoskeleton is checked (to be improved in consequence). The Analog Astronaut puts on the exoskeleton and bends elbows and knees and walks around. This test has a duration of approx. 35 minutes.

Subtest C: This test contains to walk up and down stairs as well as managing a longer walking distance.
