Lifeward's explainer of how the ReWalk personal exoskeleton initiates and controls steps (the mechanism of the ReWalk Personal 6.0 generation). Each step is triggered by tilt sensors and the user's forward body-weight shift, with crutches for balance: worn and user-controlled, not autonomous. FDA-cleared (the 6.0-generation personal-use clearance, 2014) for spinal-cord injury.
