What Drives Acceptance of Occupational Exoskeletons? Focus Group Insights from Workers in Food Retail and Corporate Logistics

Sandra Maria Siedl et al.

Summary: This study used guided focus groups to explore workers' perspectives and intentions towards adopting occupational exoskeleton technology. The results revealed that performance-related and effort-related factors, consistent with existing technology acceptance models, were highly recognized by the workers. Additionally, participants emphasized the importance of factors such as wellbeing, fairness, and the altered physical appearance of wearers in the social context of work.

Benchmarking occupational exoskeletons: An evidence mapping systematic review

Sander De Bock et al.

Summary: The study identified 139 research studies investigating the effects of occupational exoskeletons on users, finding that device validation was mainly conducted through controlled tasks and collecting muscle activity and biomechanical data. As the concept of exoskeletons evolves, assessment tasks become more applied and experimental designs more representative, but also involve a trade-off between experimental control and user experience data.

An industrial exoskeleton user acceptance framework based on a literature review of empirical studies

Shirley A. Elprama et al.

Summary: Studying the acceptance of exoskeletons in industry and identifying the factors influencing their use is crucial for improving the quality of exoskeletons and accelerating their adoption. The framework proposed in this paper can be utilized in the design, development, and evaluation phases, as well as for studying ongoing introduction at work and policy decisions related to implementing exoskeletons.

Exploratory Field Testing of Passive Exoskeletons in Several Manufacturing Environments: Perceived Usability and User Acceptance

Diana Schwerha et al.

Summary: The results of this study suggest that workers are accepting of the use of exoskeletons in diverse manufacturing environments. The main factors influencing the intention to use exoskeletons are perceived comfort, task-technology fit, perceived safety, and perceived usefulness. However, further research is needed to improve comfort, task-technology fit, user acceptance, and to develop effective implementation processes for the sustainable use of exoskeletons.

Effects of industrial back-support exoskeletons on body loading and user experience: an updated systematic review

Tjasa Kermavnar et al.

Summary: This study presents an updated systematic review of recent studies on industrial back-support exoskeletons, revealing their efficiency in reducing back-load and pointing out the need for further research in real work situations. The results indicate improvements in user endurance during lifting and static bending tasks, but a decline in performance during tasks requiring increased agility. Some side effects, such as increased abdominal/lower-limb muscle activity and changes in joint angles, were observed. Future field studies involving industrial workers are recommended to provide more comprehensive insights.

Adoption potential of occupational exoskeletons in diverse enterprises engaged in manufacturing tasks

Diana J. Schwerha et al.

Summary: This study investigated the perspectives of different sized enterprises in Ohio on adopting and using occupational exoskeletons, finding strong interest from both large companies and small to medium-sized enterprises in how exoskeletons could help employees with repetitive tasks. However, concerns still remain regarding specific benefits and costs, how to develop training programs, and potential adverse effects of exoskeleton use.

The influence of using exoskeletons during occupational tasks on acute physical stress and strain compared to no exoskeleton - A systematic review and meta-analysis

Mona Baer et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the effects of using an exoskeleton during occupational tasks on physical stress and strain, showing that using an exoskeleton can reduce acute physical stress and strain in the exoskeleton's target area. However, the impact on workers' health is still uncertain due to lack of long-term evaluations under real working conditions.

Passive Trunk Exoskeleton Acceptability and Effects on Self-efficacy in Employees with Low-Back Pain: A Mixed Method Approach

S. J. Baltrusch et al.

Summary: The study assessed the self-efficacy of employees with low-back pain when using a passive trunk exoskeleton, and found that self-efficacy significantly increased by 7%. Employees acknowledged the flexibility of the exoskeleton and expressed willingness to wear it when suffering from low-back pain, potentially reducing the risk of low-back pain.
