REX
Self-stabilising robotic mobility.
Overview
REX is a hands-free, self-supporting robotic mobility device that enables people with severe mobility impairments, such as those resulting from spinal cord injury or stroke, to stand and walk. Unlike other exoskeletons, REX is self-stabilizing and does not require the user to have crutches for balance, freeing up their hands for other tasks. It is controlled by an integrated joystick.
✨ Key Features
- Self-supporting and self-balancing
- Hands-free operation (no crutches required)
- Joystick control for intuitive use
- Allows for standing, walking, turning, and sitting
- Designed for use in a rehabilitation setting
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Self-supporting and self-balancing, which completely frees the user's hands.
- Joystick control is easy to learn and use.
- Can be used by a wider range of patients, including those with limited upper body strength.
Unique Value: Provides the benefits of upright, weight-bearing mobility to a broad population of wheelchair users, including those who lack the upper body strength for crutches, in a safe, hands-free manner.
🎯 Use Cases (3)
✅ Best For
- Used in rehabilitation centers to provide upright mobility for patients who cannot use crutch-based exoskeletons.
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Fast-paced walking or community ambulation
- Personal home use
🏆 Alternatives
Its key advantage over competitors like ReWalk and Ekso is its self-balancing, hands-free nature, which is similar to Wandercraft. However, it is controlled by a joystick rather than postural shifts, which may be more suitable for some users.
