Abstract
Systems and methods for determining a level of collaboration between a user and an exoskeleton boot are provided. A device, using an exoskeleton boot, can provide a level of force to a limb of a user to aid movement of the limb. The device can measure one or more parameters of the exoskeleton boot during the movement of the limb using the exoskeleton boot. The device can determine one or more biometrics of the user during the movement of the limb using the exoskeleton boot. The device can determine, based on the one or more biometrics and the one or more parameters of the device, a metric indicative of a collaboration between the user and the exoskeleton boot during the movement.
