Project Database
This page contains the database of possible research projects for master and bachelor students in the Biorobotics Laboratory (BioRob). Visiting students are also welcome to join BioRob, but it should be noted that no funding is offered for those projects (see https://biorob.epfl.ch/students/ for instructions). To enroll for a project, please directly contact one of the assistants (directly in his/her office, by phone or by mail). Spontaneous propositions for projects are also welcome, if they are related to the research topics of BioRob, see the BioRob Research pages and the results of previous student projects.

| Description: | Exoskeletons have experienced an unprecedented growth in recent years, and portable active devices have demonstrated their potential in assisting locomotion activities, increasing endurance, and reducing the walking effort. In our lab, a hip active orthosis (“eWalk”) has been prototyped and tested in recent years. Some projects will be available to address open research questions revolving around the topics of control, experimental evaluations, sensing, and embedded systems optimization. If you are interested in collaborating in one of these topics, please send an email to giulia.ramella@epfl.ch with (1) your CV+transcripts, (2) your previous experiences that could be relevant to the project, and (3) what interests you the most about this research topic (to be discussed during the interview). Please send the email from your institutional account, and include the type of project and in which semester you are interested in doing the collaboration. Last edited: 17/11/2025 | |
