Harry walking with Weight Activated Stance control (KAFO, leg braces)) on Right Leg

[bigalexkid]

Is it a special leg brace for kids?

Could he walk without leg braces?

@bigalexkid Yes - 'Horton' have been making stance-control units for a few years, but the joint on his right knee is a prototype gifted to us by the wonderful Darren Pereira (who made the leg brace for us).

@bigalexkid and no - he can't walk without bracing on his legs... his left leg is weak and hyper-extends without bracing and his right leg is completely paralysed - the movement you can see is driven from his hip, but he can't actually move the leg at all...
