Roam Robotics
Roam Robotics develops exoskeletons using pneumatic actuators and fabric-based systems. Their products include Ascend (a knee orthosis for osteoarthritis), Forge (a tactical load-carrying exoskeleton), and Elevate (a sports exoskeleton). The technology focuses on providing powered assistance in a lightweight, affordable package.
ExoAtlet
ExoAtlet produces powered robotic exoskeletons for clinical rehabilitation and personal mobility. Their devices support individuals with gait impairments resulting from spinal cord injury, stroke, and cerebral palsy. The portfolio includes specialized systems for pediatric rehabilitation.
Innophys
Innophys is a university spin-off based in Tokyo that manufactures pneumatic-powered exoskeletons for back support. The Muscle Suit Every utilizes artificial muscles powered by pressurized air to provide lifting assistance. It is used in nursing care, agriculture, and manufacturing.
Archelis
Archelis is a passive exoskeleton designed to support individuals in standing roles. The device allows users to sit in a standing position, transferring body weight to the shins and thighs. It is mechanical and does not require a power source, intended for use in surgery and manufacturing.
Comau
Comau, a player in industrial robotics, manufactures the MATE (Muscular Aiding Tech Exoskeleton) series. Their passive exoskeletons are designed to assist workers with overhead tasks (MATE-XT) and lifting tasks (MATE-XB). These devices provide mechanical support without motors or batteries.
Levitate Technologies
Levitate Technologies produces the AIRFRAME, a wearable exoskeleton designed to support workers in repetitive or static overhead tasks. The system transfers the weight of the arms to the hips, reducing fatigue and shoulder strain. It is mechanical and does not restrict range of motion, used in automotive, aerospace, and construction sectors.
B-Temia
B-Temia is a medical technology company that develops the Keeogo, a powered device worn on the lower body. The device provides motorized assistance at the knee joint to complement existing muscle strength. It is used for rehabilitation and personal mobility for gait impairments associated with stroke, MS, and other conditions.
Skelex
Skelex designs and manufactures non-powered, passive exoskeletons aimed at reducing physical strain for industrial workers. Their flagship product, the Skelex 360, provides dynamic shoulder support for overhead tasks by utilizing a spring-based mechanism that redistributes weight to the hips. The system is designed for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and shipbuilding.
Laevo
Laevo specializes in the development of passive, wearable exoskeletons designed to support the back during bending and lifting tasks. Their products, such as the Laevo V2 and Laevo Flex, use a chest-pad and spring system to offload the lower back. These devices are used in logistics, agriculture, and healthcare to address lower back strain.
noonee
noonee developed the ‘Chairless Chair’, a passive exoskeleton that allows workers to switch between sitting, standing, and walking. The device is designed for industrial environments where workers spend long hours on their feet. It supports the wearer’s weight and reduces load on knees and ankles. The company has expanded into a distribution model for various […]
