Just Noticeable Difference of Stiffness and Angle Change Rate of an Ankle Exoskeleton

This is a device study that will determine how much exoskeleton parameters need to change for the user to notice a difference. The parameters that will change affect how the exoskeleton responds when walking.

In a single visit, participants will walk in an ankle exoskeleton with changing forces and responsiveness. Participants will be asked if they notice a difference between different combinations of force and responsiveness.
