Thanks for that idea ,Air muscles would be more stretchable and liquefy type.elbows and shoulder would give it a good look.
May be some day I would make this type of exoskeleton .

@Ashkar- have you seen the movie "Aliens" (not Alien)? There is a similar 'EXO' in that movie, toward the end of movie.

This is a long way from your original question!

Some more links for you;

Another personal question, what part of the world are you located in? I can some times find links to things but don't know if it would help you or not, because of distance and geography. You should really add location to your profile on site.

@shortbus I haven't watch that movie,But it seems that this thread would go into some what advanced development area because I am just into this project and working very hard to do some thing extra and with the support of you all It seems that I would create any thing new.
My key points about my EXO are:-
Ultimate power
High speed
Accuracy
and high Tensile strength
I hope to get many more responses for other also.
For the Other Question I belongs to India.


ALSO CHECK MY H-BRIDGE WHICH HAS BEEN MODIFIED FURTHER

Hello Ashkar I wanted a break from the equations I was working on and thought I would do a bit of light reading in the forum. Found this post that grabbed me, sorry pun not intended.

It reminded me of the work that the Segway inventor Dean Kamen is doing with his "Luke Arm".

This video explains more about it and is packed with info on how it operates, it should give you some ideas.

You could even try contacting them, they maybe able to help you or you help them.

Sounds like a good project to work on and I wish you much success with it. Right back to the equations for me now. :D

Both of you have provided some new level of work for me now ,These articles and videos are some what very enhancing for me,I have previously studied about deca ,they have a good level of idea's but I am searching for an new level of motion that my arm would acquire.And the main difficulty is the use of eeg signals from brain into the processor,The difficulty arises in the midway between the interface i.e from brain to the prothises ,Ineed a full proof solution on how to very efficientely and quickly could I control my robotic arm,I need best and accurate EEG Sensors which I think in the market are not available.

p.s. People Please Frequently make comment on the thereat to keep it running.As it is a tough task for me to run multiple threads to learn more about micro controllers ,power electronics,Analog circuits and what not.
