Interventions
Ekso® (Wearable lower limb exoskeleton)device
The wearable lower limb exoskeleton is a powered, robotic lower limb exoskeleton with actuated hips and knees. A control algorithm has been implemented in this device, which allows for provision of assistance to lower limb segments during movement, dependent on user needs.
