Description

The Startup EASE is developing an active upper-body
exoskeleton designed to support workers’ arms and lower back
in logistics environments.
Your task will be to plan, conduct, and analyze a user study
guided by the research question: What motion characteristics
and productivity changes do workers experience when using
the exoskeleton?
To address this question, you will design a representative user
study, recruit participants with diverse backgrounds, and
employ a range of measurement tools, including motioncapture
systems, questionnaires, and physiological vital-signal
sensors.

Requirements

• Field of study: human factors engineering,mechanical engineering, psychology, sports science, and related fields

• Experience with planning and execution of user studies
