A powered exoskeleton vs. a collegiate high jumper. Who will win?

What can robots actually do... today? Can they help the average person beat a high jumper? “The Testing Lab” is a new series from ‪@michiganrobotics‬. They’ll put robots to the test to see just how far they have come, and how far they still have to go. The first installment is focused on powered exoskeletons. These robotic exoskeletons have the possibility of aiding a wide range of users, from those who do physical labor to those who need help with mobility to the elderly. Can it do something more easily measurable, like jump? To see, Emily Bywater from the Neurobionics Lab in the University of Michigan Robotics Department takes a powered ankle exoskeleton, designs and develops the control algorithms for jumping, and goes up against a high jumper from the U-M Track & Field team. With help from Professor Elliott Rouse and other lab mates, the tests help demonstrate the possibilities, current state, and future engineering work for these mobility assistants. The team demonstrated the exoskeleton at a live event in the U-M Ford Robotics Building followed by a panel discussion.
