Abstract
Advancements of both the science of human augmentation and the engineering of advanced exoskeletons have already demonstrated benefits in the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard where the technology proved to increase productivity and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries across a range of heavy industrial occupations. The focus of the industrial Human Augmentation System is to dramatically increase productivity across a broad range of tasks, protect the human from musculoskeletal injuries, and reduce the cost to manufacture the system. This forum will highlight human assistive technologies and several of their applications within the DoD, and will also look at some potential applications for sustainment and maintenance operations.
