How to overcome issue of ecg signal variations from different users?

The method they are using now in 廣島大學 is to make a 64-256 ecg grid. From that grid, it's easy to normalize the electric signal and also by watching at the signal graph. It's better to define what's happening

What's the difference between spin exo and hip exo?

Spin exo can carry weight about 30 - 40 

Hip exo can carry weight about 60 - 80

Why they focus on soft exo instead of motor exo?

Soft Exo is lightweight and cheap. So they believe it will be more widely use in the future. Also, the motion and transition is more soft which is more safe for senior citizen

Thoughts

Q1: Carrying people or not?

Q2: For nurse or senior citizens?

Q3: For hospital or for home?

Making sensor grid is a good way to go

Motorless standing seat can avoid sit to stand situation and avoid carrying weight balancing issue

A user study is needed to target real need and market
