Hugh Herr. ProjectResearch. Human walking model predicts joint mechanics, electromyography, and mechanical economy. We are studying the mechanical behavior of leg muscles and tendons during human walking in order to motivate the design of power-efficient ….
Hugh Herr is building the next generation of bionic limbs, robotic prosthetics inspired by nature's own designs. Herr lost both legs in a climbing accident 30 years ago; now, as the head of the MIT Media Lab's Biomechatronics group, he shows his incredible technology in a talk that's both technical and deeply personal — with the help of ballroom dancer Adrianne Haslet-Davis, who lost her ...
Hugh Herr, né le 25 octobre 1964 à Lancaster (Pennsylvanie), est un grimpeur, ingénieur et biophysicien américain. Grimpeur de haut niveau, il doit être amputé de ses deux jambes au niveau du genou à la suite d'une mésaventure lors d'une ascension.
Hugh Herr (SM ’93) believes that technologists can do better. An associate professor of media arts and sciences and leader of the Biomechatronics Group in MIT’s Media Lab, Herr is building sophisticated devices that aid human movement by mimicking nature. It’s unusual to find a researcher whose work and personal history are so entwined ...
Hugh Herr co-directs the Center for Extreme Bionics at the MIT Media Lab, where he is pioneering a new class of biohybrid smart prostheses and orthoses to improve the quality of life for thousands of people with physical challenges. A powered ankle-foot prosthesis called the Empower by Ottobock, for instance, emulates the action of a biological ...
23 de feb. de 2022 · Follow the dramatic personal journey of Hugh Herr, a biophysicist working to create brain-controlled robotic limbs. At age 17, Herr’s legs were amputated after a climbing accident. Frustrated by the crude prosthetic limbs he was given, Herr set out to remedy their design, leading him to a career as an inventor of innovative prosthetic devices.
