Involving society as early as the development of new technologies – that is the goal of Max Böhme and Felix Weiske. The two young scientists at HTWK Leipzig are working on an intelligent exoskeleton that is intended to help disabled people climb stairs. This summer they want to present the first prototype and involve future users in the development as part of an interactive workshop. With this idea, they convinced the jury of the university competition for the Science Year 2019 – Artificial Intelligence.
