Last week, a paralyzed man strapped on a pair of robotic legs and joined the flow of rushing pedestrians on a sidewalk in Manhattan. The user, Robert Woo, was demonstrating a recently unveiled exoskeleton, the ReWalk Personal 6.0 from ReWalk Robotics. He got a few curious looks as he strode forward in his sleek black gear, but the fast-walking New Yorkers didn't slow down or clear space for him. U.S. regulators approved a prior version of the ReWalk system for people with spinal cord injuries, and cleared it for both clinical and personal use. It's the only exoskeleton to receive that wide-ranging clearance thus far, meaning it's the first exoskeleton to make it out of the hospital and into the wild.
