Overview
Ekso is a wearable exoskeleton that augments a person's physical capabilities and is currently used to help people with lower-extremity paralysis or weakness stand up and walk. The device transfers its load directly to the ground so the user doesn't bear the weight. It features adjustable sizing, wireless usage monitoring, and three walking modes for progressive rehabilitation activity.
