Conversing Effectively module

  In the article “Where’s My Supersuit in Conversation”, Zelik (2019) writes about the remarkable features and the pros and cons of the wearable exoskeletons which describe as “mechanized clothing” developed by his research team. The main function of the exoskeletons is to lessen the workload and aid those with spinal injuries by providing a back-support system, and by how it works is by consisting of common clothing materials along with the assistive fabric elastic band, along with a switch which allows user to turn the suit’s assistance on or off.  Zelik mentions whenever the suit is switched off, the user can move “freely and fully” and it does not consist of motors and batteries. In addition, Zelik mentions “it’s easily concealed under everyday clothes”. At the same time, he mentions a disadvantage, such as unaffordability. To conclude, Zelik mentions in hope of “30 years from now,'' the “mechanized clothing”, “will be as common and mundane in society as smartpho...

In the article “Where’s My Supersuit in Conversation”, Zelik (2019) states that for the past five years, the wearable exoskeletons that aid in mobility were introduced to the public after lab approval. These exoskeletons can lessen the workload and aid those with spinal injuries as well as provide a back support system. In return, this relieves the stress and pain on the user's lower back. The article did mention that they have created a prototype of “spring-powered exosuit” to assist in walking and running. In addition, the article also states there is another related supersuit which might be capable of supporting human neck for those who had leaned forward for a prolonged period of time. This helps to reduce stress and neck pain. However, the article mentions a couple of disadvantages, such as unaffordability and its bulkiness, which could hinder tasks, as well as cause discomfort for people.

Subject: Self-Introduction Dear Prof Brad, I am writing an introduction letter as a student of your module. My name is Calvin and had graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a diploma in automation & mechatronic system. Which mean i will stay within the polytechnic for a total of six years since i came from the same polytechnic. Perhaps I have an affinity with the number ‘six’. As I took whole ‘six’ year to complete my secondary school, along with the completion of my primary school which is additional ‘six’ years. I shall skip the reason of why I took six years to complete my secondary till the next time. I would say I am a passionate learner as I love to handle tasks that are challenging as they excites me. I love to open and analyse basically any hardware or stationery as it always keeps me interested. Despite times where i forget how to reassemble, I will try to fix it back no matter what happens. This has sparked my interest into an engineering course since young. Which...
