Abstract
The development of exoskeletons as an active external support structure for the human body has made significant progress in recent decades thanks to miniaturization and digitalization. The decisive factor for acceptance
and handling is mechanical transparency [1] for the user, in the sense of perceived restriction of movement. This applies to the application of the exoskeleton as a power assistance, as an input device for remote control or
as a robotic rehabilitation device [2].
