Tasks that labourers in the agriculture industry commonly perform, including carrying heavy loads and bending down, are among the worst for workplace health and safety. This project addresses the need for a versatile, adaptable mobile platform to assist in transportation of heavy loads in these agricultural settings. A quadrupedal robot is being developed to solve this problem, as it provides a highly maneuverable, stable platform that is capable of traversing uneven terrain.

Vertical jumping is one of the most demanding tasks within the realm of physical activity. Our team has designed smart compression legwear to help users track and improve their vertical jump performance. AirSleeve garments couple electromyography (EMG), inertial measurement unit (IMU) technology, and a responsive UI interface to monitor and deliver personalized feedback regarding muscle activity, angles of bend within the leg, and jump force. This data-driven feedback enables athletes to optimize their jump form while tracking muscle activity and training progress.
