  2. Soft exoskeleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_exoskeleton

    A soft exoskeleton, also known as a soft wearable robot or a soft robotic exosuit, is a type of wearable robotic device designed to augment and enhance the physical abilities of the human body. Unlike traditional rigid exoskeletons , which are typically made of hard materials like metal and are worn over the user's limbs, soft exoskeletons are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton

    A skeleton is the structural frame that supports the body of most animals.There are several types of skeletons, including the exoskeleton, which is a rigid outer shell that holds up an organism's shape; the endoskeleton, a rigid internal frame to which the organs and soft tissues attach; and the hydroskeleton, a flexible internal structure supported by the hydrostatic pressure of body fluids.

  8. Arthropod exoskeleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthropod_exoskeleton

    The arthropod exoskeleton is divided into different functional units, each comprising a series of grouped segments; such a group is called a tagma, and the tagmata are adapted to different functions in a given arthropod body. For example, tagmata of insects include the head, which is a fused capsule, the thorax as nearly a fixed capsule, and ...
