An overview of the experimental setting. Electrical signals were sent to the muscles from the developed electrical stimulation device (right), and the joint torque generated was measured using a force sensor. Electrodes were inserted inside the exoskeleton to transmit electrical stimulation to the three muscles (Protractor, Retractor, and Levator) targeted for electrical stimulation
