Op 22 augustus is het zo ver: het zesde Project MARCH exoskelet wordt gepresenteerd!
In Museum Prinsenhof lopen we graag met jullie door ons Project MARCH jaar heen. Van het stellen van een teamdoel naar het uitstippelen van een plan om dit doel binnen een jaar te bereiken. Van technische tekeningen maken tot het schrijven van de software code. En van het ontwerp onthullen op de Design Presentation naar het assembleren van het exoskelet. Maar het allerbelangrijkste, van het zitten naar het staan en van binnen voorgeprogrammeerd lopen naar buiten dynamisch lopen.
We hebben samen met Koen grote stappen gezet binnen de exoskelettechnologie en dat willen we graag samen met jullie vieren. Er zal een presentatie zijn met als hoogtepunt dat Koen in het exoskelet zal lopen. Registreer u snel voor het evenement en ontvang een gratis kaartje.
Programma:
12:30-13:30 - Presentatie/Koen loopt in de MARCH VI We zien u graag op 22 augustus!
August 22nd is the day: the sixth Project MARCH exoskeleton will be presented!
In Museum Prinsenhof we will walk you through our Project MARCH year. From setting a team goal to outlining a plan to achieve this goal within a year. From making technical drawings to writing the software code. And from revealing the design at the Design Presentation to assembling the exoskeleton. But most importantly, from sitting to standing up and from walking inside with pre-programmed movements to walking outside with dynamic movements.
Together with Koen, we have made big steps within the exoskeleton technology and we would like to celebrate that with you. There will be a presentation and the highlight will be Koen walking in the exoskeleton. Register for the event and receive a free ticket.

We look forward to seeing you on August 22nd!
MARCH VIKoens walk through Delft with the MARCH VIProject MARCH2021-08-22 | Road Through Delft: The Reveal
Every year, a new team from Project MARCH designs and develops an exoskeleton for someone with a spinal cord injury. This year, the goal of the sixth MARCH team was to walk outside, to walk a route through Delft. After a year of hard work, the team, together with Koen succeeded in achieving this goal on August 22nd.MARCHmade: OIM Orthopedie - Project MARCHProject MARCH2021-06-15 | Het zesde team van Project MARCH is dit jaar een onderzoek gestart naar het verschil tussen het lopen van iemand met beperkingen in zijn bewegingsvrijheden en zonder beperkingen in zijn bewegingsvrijheden tijdens het lopen. Deze resultaten zullen uiteindelijk de basis vormen voor de looppatronen van het exoskelet. Voor dit onderzoek was een passief exoskelet nodig dat bewegingen bij een niet-gehandicapt persoon kon beperken. Het zesde team van Project MARCH had niet de kennis en middelen om zo'n passief exoskelet zelf te ontwikkelen. Hiervoor werd OIM Orthopedie benaderd. Zij waren gelijk heel enthousiast om een passief exoskelet te ontwikkelen voor dit onderzoek. Het passieve exoskelet is door hen helemaal op maat gemaakt. Door de technische expertise en het meedenken van de medewerkers van OIM Orthopedie voldoet het passieve exoskelet volledig aan de wensen van Project MARCH. In deze video wordt uitgelegd hoe het passieve exoskelet is ontwikkeld!MARCHmade: MARCH VI ExoskeletonProject MARCH2021-04-14 | Now that our design for the MARCH VI is finalized and the first components are being delivered, it’s time for us to start assembling our exoskeleton. But what are all the individual parts and how does everything come together? This is something we would like to show you in the upcoming weeks. Take a look with us to see how the MARCH VI is made by our own Project MARCH team (edited)DESIGN MARCH VIProject MARCH2021-03-25 | We proudly present the new design of the MARCH VI to you!
