New Zealand startup Rex Bionics has developed robotic legs that enable wheelchair users to stand, walk, and even climb stairs.
An individual with enough upper body strength to be able to self transfer and use a joystick by hand is likely to be able to use Rex. The robotic legs enable people to stand, move sideways, turn around, climb stairs and walk on slanted surfaces such as ramps and slopes.
