TL;DR: In this article, an intelligent assist system having a modular architecture, coordinated by electronic communication links between the modules, is provided, where motion modules provide an assist upon actuation, and are in communication with computational nodes.
Abstract: An intelligent assist system having a modular architecture, coordinated by electronic communication links between the modules, is provided. Motion modules provide an assist upon actuation, and are in communication with computational nodes. Communication links between at least two of the computational nodes carry information between the nodes that actuate a motion module.
