Abstract

This paper presents the recent activities of Space Applications Services for the development of force feedback arm exoskeletons based on 3D printing technologies. The paper describes the design of the exoskeleton system and illustrates its application through two different projects of slave robotic arm teleoperation, ICARUS and DEXROV, where the concept is used.
