Robotic suit lets paralyzed individuals walk hands-free – trial underway

This study is testing a personal exoskeleton that helps people with spinal cord injury stand, walk, and move without using their hands. The device is self-balancing, so users don't need crutches or a walker. Researchers will see if 24 participants can complete walking tests and everyday tasks like moving around a kitchen or living room. The goal is to improve mobility and independence for people with paralysis.
