“This is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate the innovative design and AI-based personalised predictive control for the EXOSKELETON developed specifically with anthropometric and bio-kinematic considerations of children with CP.”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

On the first day of LTW 2023, Professor Sirlantzis and Mr Mohammad Sarajchi\u00a0(who is the Researcher working on developing important aspects of the exoskeleton), presented the benefits and future potential of this unique for the UK technology to the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology Rt Hon Cloe Smith MP (Chloe Smith on LinkedIn: A fantastic day to kick off London Tech Week \ud83d\udce2Opening the mainstage,\u2026<\/a>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
