Description
The Axosuit is a powered lower body medical exoskeleton advanced by Axosuits in Romania.  It is designed for gait rehabilitation and walking assist.
The Axosuit is as much a technological project as a social one. Â As stated on the company’s website, exoskeleton development is currently focused predominantly in the richest countries in the world (Japan, USA, West Europe, etc.) and large corporations (Panasonic, Parker Hannifin, etc.). Â But would it be possible for a startup to develop a quality exoskeleton and gain regulatory approval with only a fraction of the budget of other developers? Â Axosuits, one of only a handful of startups in Romania (East Europe) thinks it can.
The Axosuits project and whether it succeeds or fails will give us a hint as to how quickly exoskeleton technology will spread around the globe.
The Axosuit is still under development. Â The price listed in the Exoskeleton Catalog is an approximation based on the company’s desire to produce a device with the lowest possible price using as many off the rack (store-bought) components.

The Exoskeleton Report currently does not have any articles dedicated to Axosuits and their products, but Emerging Europe published a wonderful interview with the principal architects of the company in September 2016 titled: AXOSUITS — DEMOCRATISING ACCESS TO HEALTH-IMPROVING TECHNOLOGIES
Exoskeleton Report does not endorse one exoskeleton product over another. Â The exoskeleton catalog is purely for educational purposes. Â The catalog is meant to provide an easily accessible birds-eye view of the exoskeleton industry, and a quick method to sort exoskeletons by type and purpose. Â All prices are approximate and are meant to provide a general sense of the cost of the devices.
