Why it’s in

  • A real walking robot, not a brace: it detects walking intent and adjusts assistance or resistance in real time.
  • Serious maker: over 3,000 WIM units sold and US$68 million raised in 2026; CE-certified as a medical device.
  • Compact: 1.6 kg, IP65 and folds to 23 cm for travel.

What bothers us

  • Hard to buy outside Italy: no official EU web shop, and the Italian price excludes VAT.
  • Gentle 6 Nm of torque: made for everyday walking and rehabilitation, not for sport.
  • Battery runtime and user size range are not published.
