MARCH IX (2023-2024)
Name: MARCH IX exoskeleton, Izzy
Pilot: Daan
Teamgoal: Cybathlon 2024
New innovations: Ankle inversion/eversion joint, weight reduction and MDrives
Legacy
MARCH VIII (2022-2023)
Name: MARCH VIII exoskeleton, Hennie
Pilot: Koen
Teamgoal: Make a self-balancing exoskeleton allowing the pilot to walk without crutches
New innovations: Torque control, model predictive control, pressure soles, the IMU (Inertial Measuring Unit), improved joints and improved embedded system.
MARCH VII (2021-2022)
Name: MARCH VII exoskeleton, Guusje
Pilot: Koen
Teamgoal: Making the exoskeleton walk fully dynamically and making it user-friendly
New innovations: Click-on shoes, depth cameras, live gait generation, pressure soles, improved translational joints, splash proof, improved power distribution board, EEG
MARCH VI 2020-2021
Name: MARCH VI exoskeleton, Fred
Pilot: Koen
Teamgoal: To develop an exoskeleton with which the pilot can dynamically navigate a predetermined route with obstacles through Delft.
New innovations: RealSense cameras, live gait generation, robust exoskeleton, hinge for ease access, improved joints and optimized PDB, reduced frame weight, pressure soles, different fixtures
MARCH V (2019-2020)
Name: MARCH V(c) exoskeleton, Ivi
Pilot: Sjaan
Teamgoal: Win the Cybathlon 2020
New innovations: based on the MARCH IV exoskeleton and improved to complete the obstacles at the Cybathlon 2020, splashproof, different upper leg fixtures
MARCH IV (2018-2019)
Name: MARCH IV exoskeleton, Sammy
Pilot: Sjaan
Teamgoal: Win the Cybathlon experience 2019
New innovations: New joint (HAA, hip abduction/adduction), pressure soles, improved fixtures
MARCH III (2017-2018)
Name: MARCH III exoskeleton
Pilot: Sjaan
Teamgoal: Win the Cybathlon experience 2018
New innovations: ADPF (ankle dorsi/plantar flexion)
MARCH II (2016-2017)
Name: MARCH II exoskeleton
Pilot: Ruben
Teamgoal: Win the Cybathlon experience 2017
New innovations: they went back to the basics, creating an MVP (Minimal Viable Product). This means that only the most essential components are included in the exoskeleton to maintain its core functions: walking, standing up, sitting, ascending/descending slopes, and climbing stairs. Other new innovations include HFE (hip flexion extension) and KFE (knee flexion extension), as well as 4 DoF (degrees of freedom)
MARCH I (2015-2016)
