Exoskeleton solutions are being widely adopted across industries to support employee health and boost productivity. The growing demand has led to the emergence of several startups expertizing in exoskeleton technology and providing solutions for rehabilitation. Furthermore, the constantly evolving exoskeleton industry is driving market players to devise innovative product development strategies to boost the adoption rate over the forthcoming years. For instance, in June 2021, suitX launched shieldX which is used by health workers wearing heavy anti-radiation aprons who are prone to suffering from neck & back problems. Similarly, in May 2021, Roam Robotics announced the launch of Ascend, which is a robotic partial knee orthosis used by wearers to reduce knee pain and regain mobility.
Some of the most common musculoskeletal injuries and disorders affecting the construction industry are Occupational Overuse Syndrome (OOS), Cumulative Trauma Disorders (CTD), and Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). As per the WHO, data estimates published in February 2021, approximately 1.71 billion individuals across the globe suffer from musculoskeletal disorders. According to Health and Safety Executive (HSE) data estimates in November 2020, approximately 480,000 workers in Great Britain suffer from occupation-related musculoskeletal disorders across several industries. These are some of the driving forces boosting the adoption of exoskeleton solutions owing to the benefits associated with exoskeleton technology such as augmenting or assisting users’ physical activity or capability, improving users’ health and productivity, and reducing fatigue experienced by industrial workers.
