Emek Barış KüçüktabakPhD StudentMechanical EngineeringAdvisers: Kevin Lynch and Jose Pons
I am working on developing a human-robot-robot-human interaction scheme where multiple users physically interact with each other through their lower limb exoskeletons. My research aims include using physical human-robots-human interaction on gait therapy and developing human-like robot controllers for improved physical rehabilitation. I am particularly interested in human-robot interaction, force control, and motor learning.
