First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a wearable robotic exoskeleton can improve walking, balance, and mobility in healthy older adults and people with Parkinson's disease—both groups at high risk for falls. About 26 participants will attend two lab sessions to try the device while performing tasks like walking and standing. Researchers will measure immediate effects and ask users about their experience to see if the exoskeleton is helpful and acceptable.
