Apparatus and systems for controlled collapse of an exoskeleton

Abstract:

The current disclosure is directed to embodiments of an apparatus, method and systems for collapsing/lowering an exoskeleton device including at least one motor and at least one component. In some embodiments, the device is configured to be moved by the at least one motor. When at least one of any of a plurality of faults including power faults such as a low power fault and a power failure fault, electrical faults, software faults and mechanical faults, is detected in the powering the exoskeleton device, one or more components of the device may be decelerated via the at least one motor.
