The Walking Assist device, Honda's experimental robot legs, is expected to help people who work standing or in a crouching position for a long time. It redistributes body weight along its frame and lightens the burden on workers' real legs.

  • @claudycherie BerkeleyBionics is working on one that just recently were sold to a selected number of clinics for around $100,000 each, they can only walk straight on flat surfaces but B.Bionics has promised to start selling the Home version in either 2012 or 2013. I'm guessing within 5-7 years their Exoskeleton will advance enough to make a person walk without cane/walker & on rough surfaces, including turning and getting up if it falls! I'm again guessing the home version would be around $30k.

  • @Hesam0000 What is the name of a good walking assist device for the handicaped, Isreali-made or otherwise?

  • looks a creature in the crouch !

  • Robot pants when i have enough money i'm gonna buy one.

  • @Alanjbz5 No, but the Israeli-made one will when they perfect it.

  • would these device help a partial-physical handicaped person to walk without falling?
