Millions of industry and manufacturing workers every year suffer from Neck Muskuloskeletal disorders which cause neck pain and cost a lot of money to individuals and companies. The most common reason that leads to injuries is awkward static postures that involve the upper extremes being raised for a long period of time. My project's goal is to limit these injuries by designing an active exoskeleton which is going to support the upper extremes by canceling out their weight. The design is such that the arms will be able to move completely free and it is going to involve pneumatic actuation.
