Berkeley Bionics is testing their exoskeleton walking device for paraplegics known as eLegs. Of the ten trial facilities, the only one at a public hospital is the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. I had the chance to watch and talk with Stephanie Sablan during her last physical training session with eLegs. The video above isn't fancy, but it gives you a good idea of how the device works during actual operation.
And it's in HD.

Many thanks to Miss Sablan, Dr. Akshat Shah, and the other fine people I met at Santa Clara.
My apologies for the poor audio quality, next time I'll bring a boom mic.

The HAL Robotic Exoskeletonby aboutrobots1,368 views
The woman on the left of the video seems to press a button on some sort of remote which activates each leg movement. Hence, the exoskeleton may mimic correctly the original leg movement, but at every step, the user must request a command. Did I get that right?
Another team of engineers developed a leg prosthesis which mimics the movement the other functioning leg did. That allowed the user to walk perfectly. The only drawback being the necessity to always go up steps with the working leg first.

This is wonderful! I hope to see this technology fully developed within my lifetime
