Abstract

This research study aims to investigate the design, development, and optimization of low-cost exoskeleton technology to enhance the physical capabilities of Indian soldiers. Exoskeletons hold tremendous potential in augmenting soldiers' strength and endurance, leading to improved performance during combat and operational tasks. However, the high costs associated with existing exoskeleton solutions often limit their widespread adoption, especially in resource-constrained settings like the Indian military. To address this challenge, the research will focus on the development of affordable exoskeleton prototypes without compromising on quality or effectiveness. The study will begin with a comprehensive review of existing exoskeleton designs, materials, and control mechanisms, identifying key factors influencing their cost. Based on this analysis, novel, and cost-effective approaches will be proposed, aiming to reduce production expenses while maintaining functionality and reliability. The design phase will leverage computer-aided modeling and simulation techniques to optimize the exoskeleton's structural integrity, ergonomics, and performance. Prototypes will be fabricated using locally available materials and manufacturing processes to reduce costs and ensure practicality for Indian military deployment. Moreover, the study will explore potential integration with advanced sensors and actuators, allowing for adaptive and intelligent control systems, further improving the exoskeleton's responsiveness and user experience.
