Hip exoskeletons may hold potential to augment walking performance and mobility in individuals with disabilities. The purpose of this study was to design and validate a novel autonomous hip exoskeleton with a user-adaptive control strategy capable of reducing the energy cost of level and incline walking in individuals with and without walking impairment. First, in a small cohort of three unimpaire...
