Abstract
- A patent has been issued for a wearable robotic device developed by Ekso Bionics Holdings Inc. The device aims to restore legged mobility to individuals with paraplegia, a condition that affects approximately 262,000 people in the United States. The device includes a self-aligning, self-drawing coupler, a removable actuator cassette, a tensioning retention system, and an adjustable ankle-foot orthotic system. These features improve usability, ease of manufacture, and the range of sizes the device can fit. The invention also includes a removable hip-wing attachment system for easier field changes and increased safety. [Extracted from the article]
