Thesis Topic/Title:
Wearable Technology Solutions for Access Opportunities and Fuller Body Embodied Assistive Technologies

Description

Building on current work in this area, the research investigates the use of some/full body wearable technology solutions (beyond e.g. fitbits) and proposes applications, systems, case studies, prototypes, exemplars that work towards integrative assistive solutions for elderly, disabled and/or able bodied participants. The thesis would investigate contemporary successful solutions and progress future solutions that address case by case examples where a fuller integrated system is required to suit needs. An overview of existing external augmentations (for example, on the scale of exoskeletons), would form the basis for the studies and exemplars that are investigated within the thesis.
