ExoBand

Description

ExoBand is engineered to facilitate efficient walking with minimized energy expenditure. This innovative technology operates passively, leveraging advanced elastic technology to efficiently conserve and optimize energy usage. Its design integrates functional and comfortable fabric, ensuring seamless incorporation into daily routines. With a lightweight construction free from complex gears and batteries, ExoBand enhances mobility without compromising comfort or practicality. Furthermore, its compatibility with existing walking aids enhances versatility and usability. Representing a significant stride in assistive technology, ExoBand combines functionality and comfort to empower individuals seeking greater mobility independence.

Inspired by biomechanical principles, the design endeavors to amplify walking capabilities, enabling prolonged and improved ambulation. The approach has been refined through meticulous observation of individuals afflicted with diverse pathologies aiming to enhance deamblulation and stability. ExoBand embodies deliberate simplicity, underpinned by three years of exhaustive research and development, alongside the creation of numerous prototypes. Immediate benefits of ExoBand utilization include trunk stabilization, posture enhancement, and reduced fatigue. Additionally, post-rehabilitation program implementation yields significant improvements, such as a 20% average increase in walking distance.

Pediatric version: the ExoBand comes with a pediatric version called ExoBaby. It is functionally identical to the adult version. More information can be found on the Moveo website.
