Rich multimodal evaluation of the Lucy active pneumatic shoulder exoskeleton: 5 participants performed two overhead screwing tasks at four support levels while 8-muscle EMG, optical mocap, ground reaction forces, interface pressure and tool current were recorded (Applied Sciences, 2022). Data available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.
