  • Robotic exoskeletons are kind of wearable robots enabling operators to amplify the force. There are several possible applications in plenty of options: to put very heavy products into right positions for assemblies, to rescue people from natural disasters, and to work for medical rehabilitation etc. In this study, the exoskeleton hands were designed and fabricated using 3-D printer. It would be the good case of application of 3-D printer to design and fabricate the exoskeleton hands.
