AI exoskeleton gives wheelchair users the freedom to walk again Wandercraft's Personal Exoskeleton is about helping people stand tall, connect with others and live life on their own terms.

Tom's Guide Verdict The Dnsys X1 lower-body exoskeleton makes movement easier, and could be the ideal mobility aid for people with injuries, disabilities or long-term health conditions.

Exoskeletons can reduce injuries and boost productivity—but choosing the right one is critical. Discover key questions safety pros must ask before investing.

Companies are developing mobility aids and technologies including robotic exoskeletons, limbs, and communication tools.

An exoskeleton let a paralyzed man walk. Then its maker refused repairs. Michael Straight walked more than a half-million steps using an exoskeleton, until the manufacturer said it would not ...

Lightening the load: AI helps exoskeleton work with different strides A model trained in a virtual environment does remarkably well in the real world.

Exoskeletons could help disabled people move freely again and one day boost the power and stamina of workers doing manual labor. A new AI-powered approach to building these devices could help expand ...

A new study gave people a third thumb and had them do basic tasks. The finding could change the way we see robotics.

How does the Third Thumb work? The Third Thumb, created by University of Cambridge augmentation and prosthetics designer Dani Clode, is a 3D-printed robotic thumb controlled by a user’s toes.

Cambridge researchers developed a controllable prosthetic extra thumb that people can quickly learn to use for picking up and manipulating objects. Testing at the Royal Society Summer Science ...
