About Rex
Inspiration and innovation has turned phenomenal advanced robotics technology and impossible dreams into realisation.
For the past eight years a passionate team of experienced scientists and engineers have developed a solution which enables wheelchair users (and others with a mobility impairment) to stand and walk, allowing them to be independently upright and mobile.
This solution is a robotic exoskeleton called Rex.
However it's not just the mobility factor which is revolutionary - the most amazing result of Rex is the infinite smiles it creates. Virtually every Rex user, from the moment they begin to stand, walk, climb stairs, they simply beam.
The other important outcome for people using Rex is the physical feeling most experience - that of painless movement and relaxation as the body's systems operate in the way they were designed to - upright.
With state-of-the-art, highly engineered systems some 29 on-board computer processors control movement and balance through joystick control allowing the Rex user to direct the device to sit, stand, walk and turn with consummate ease.
These robotic legs can even walk up steps, up or down slopes. Rex has been designed with maximum comfort and stability.
Rex does not require any additional supportive aids such as crutches. The device is self supporting allowing you to keep your arms and hands free to use.
At Rex Bionics we recognise that there are millions of people around the world who may have restrictions due to some form of mobility impairment. Rex Bionics truly changes people's lives and is committed to continued developments in robotic innovation.
This leading technology is part of an exciting journey in the world of medical device robotics.
