On November 6, 2024, at the awards ceremony, ABLE Human Motion was awarded the 2024 AIJEC “Best Business Initiative.” This honour acknowledges our efforts to create the world’s lightest, fastest-to-put-on, and most accessible robotic exoskeleton, designed specifically for neurorehabilitation.

What Makes Our Exoskeleton Unique?

The ABLE Exoskeleton stands out for its usability and functionality, tailored to the needs of each patient. It’s the lightest in its category and designed for rapid adjustment, minimizing setup time and maximizing rehabilitation efficiency.

In just five years, we’ve achieved significant advancements, including our physiologic gait pattern, allowing us to enter the neurorehabilitation market with a disruptive product. Continuous collaboration with patients, therapists, and doctors has been essential in refining our product, ensuring it’s not only effective but also adaptable and practical for both clinical and, soon, home settings.
