Great breakdown of the technology, but it's worth noting that systems like the EKSO Indego Personal are designed specifically as go-home devices for daily use, rather than being strictly restricted to clinical settings.

As a paraplegic who is totally paralyzed from the waist down, I use this device right at home. Drawing from my own experience, having a personal exoskeleton gives you the incredible ability to get up, stand, and walk around your house and community. For anyone wondering how to obtain one, these take-home units can be paid for by Medicare or through the VA when meeting the necessary medical criteria. It’s fantastic to see awareness spreading that these devices actually exist for individuals to take home and integrate into their everyday lives.

I could see some of these making an aging off road adventure motorcycle riders day much more enjoyable

I am waiting for a right hip replacement that I require because of arthritis.  The cost of an operation is approximately $25K , how would before  and after the replacement?

Hands down the DNSYS is affordable and it works

I have MS and I bought dnysx1 carbon hoping it would help me with my condition..I guess its great for people who doesn't have walking issues but for me it is pretty unusable...ecu unit is on the back, which, besides beeing hard to reach and use, is also preventing me to sit or lay in bed with it attached and also make it difficult (impossible..) to use toilet ( both resting and toilet are "must have" for people in this condition many times during a day..) ..so, I am exited that technology made possible that first generation of such devices  made so much progres and benefits but, I guess I'll have to waitl some time until it become usable and affordable for people with such health challenges..

If Musk or bezos instead of the not a flamethrower or bezos rocket had made 3 times de investment on this, won't that be more helpful

I’m getting the hypershell x. I have arthritis in my back,hips and knees. I’ll let you know if it helps
