E.X.O was completed during my tenure at HOPE Technik.
As the Lead Industrial Designer for the project - I was tasked with defining the design of the pneumatic-powered exoskeleton -
well considered and engineered by my colleagues to assist its user in lifting heavy objects during emergencies.
With fabricating considerations using sheet metal and fiberglass, the project was a good balance between styling and DFM.
All in all, it was a thorough exploration and research to better understand and attempt to go beyond what the current exoskeleton market offers.
