Driven by his love for football, LIU Yunpu developed an exoskeleton to aid ligament rehabilitation after surgery. The system’s flexible design mirrors human joint movement, offering customized recovery. Designing the structure was a major challenge, requiring advanced robotics and mathematics beyond typical undergraduate study. Yunpu sought guidance from mentors and peers, learning kinematic analysis and troubleshooting complex problems. His persistence paid off when the project won the Champion title at the PolyU International Future Challenge. Along the way, he gained expertise in robotic structural design, data visualization, and systematic planning. Most importantly, Yunpu learned resilience and discipline, proving that determination and collaboration can transform personal passion into impactful innovation for rehabilitation.
