The ReWalk robotic exoskeleton, developed by Argo Medical Technologies, Yokneam Illit, Israel, has been named one of Time Magazine’s 25 Best Inventions of 2013.
The ReWalk is currently being used in several U.S. rehabilitation facilities and enables users to climb stairs and navigate inclines. Users’ movement is controlled by shifts in the center of gravity and upper-body movements, utilizing sensors and a computer-based control system.
