A systematic literature review of evidence for the use of assistive exoskeletons in defence and security use cases.

Advances in assistive exoskeleton technology, and a boom in related scientific literature, prompted a need to review the potential use of exoskeletons in defence and security. A systematic review examined the evidence for successful augmentation of human performance in activities deemed most relevant to military tasks. Categories of activities were determined through literature scoping and Human Factors workshops with military stakeholders.
