ExoTechHK Limited is a pioneering company specializing in the development of advanced exoskeleton solutions to enhance human motion and prevent musculoskeletal injuries. By combining robotics, artificial intelligence, and biomechanics, the company delivers innovative, lightweight, and cost-effective wearable devices and services to support industries such as construction, logistics, and healthcare, improving workers ability, safety, productivity, and overall well-being.
Musculoskeletal injuries, such as low back pain, affect over 155,000 workers in Hong Kong, leading to lowered quality of life, reduced workforce availability, and compensation expenses. ExoTechHK’s lightweight, affordable, and intelligent exoskeletons reduce physical strain and injury risks while empowering workers and a broader workforce to take on labor-intensive roles, mitigating labor shortages in critical industries.
Hong Kong Centre for Logistics Robotics was established in 2020 by The Chinese University of Hong Kong, with research contributions from the University of California, Berkeley. The Centre focuses on the research and development (R&D) of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for “future workplace” as well as innovative solutions to the “pressing problems” in the logistics industry. In particular, HKCLR aims to advance robot intelligence in terms of
• Robust Sensing and Perception
• AI-Powered Robot Manipulation
• Human-Robot Collaboration
• Unmanned Logistics Vehicles
The research team is composed of distinguished professors from the two universities and accomplished Ph.D. degree holders across world-leading universities. The Centre is dedicated to pursuing innovative breakthroughs in ready-for-use robotics and AI technologies via close collaboration with academic and industrial stakeholders throughout Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area (GBA), and Chinese Mainland. It is expected that the Centre will foster the leading role of the local logistics industry in GBA and Chinese Mainland, meanwhile enhancing its competitive edge in the global arena.
