We are using the ScienceSuit to test the added value of integrating haptic feedback stimulation in exoskeletons worn by subjects with spinal cord injuries.
The ScienceSuit is very user-friendly, and thanks to the clear documentation, easy to customise to our needs and integrate with other components.
