ARGO Medical Technologies' ReWalk has been out a few months now, but it's tough to really appreciate what this thing can do unless you see a patient utilize one on video.
Hailed as a "quasi-robotic ambulation system," the wearable device was specifically created to assist those with lower-limb
disabilities and give them back
upright mobility.
In the video waiting in the read link, one particular individual relies on the ReWalk to stand up and move about after being stricken to a wheelchair for 20 years -- no need to take our word for it, though, real live proof is but a click away.
