Abstract
An exoskeleton includes an arm brace coupled to an arm of a wearer and a tensile member connected to the arm brace. An actuator exerts a pulling force on the tensile member. The pulling force reduces a length of the tensile member between the arm brace and the actuator and causes the arm of the wearer to bend at an elbow.
