Ankle exoskeleton controller to improve walking
This trial tests a wearable robotic device for the ankles that helps you walk on a treadmill. The researchers want to see if the device can estimate and improve how you walk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can walk on a treadmill by yourself for 10 minutes
- You have no ongoing health issues that limit walking or exercise (like heart, lung, or muscle problems)
- You have no current pain or injury in your legs, feet, or back
- You can wear a special ankle brace and a safety harness
- You are not using a walker or cane to walk

This trial tests a new lower-limb exoskeleton (a wearable robot) designed to help people walk more easily. Although the device may be useful for stroke survivors, this early-phase study is enrolling healthy volunteers without neurological conditions to safely evaluate the device's performance.
This study tests whether walking with a robotic exoskeleton changes how healthy young adults walk. It may help improve walking patterns or fitness.
This trial tests whether a robotic leg exoskeleton can help improve walking in children and young adults with certain conditions (like cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, spina bifida, or spinal cord injury) or those with no walking issues. The goal is to find out if the exoskeleton is safe and effective for everyday use, especially in younger people who might lose the ability to walk as they get older.
This study tests whether a passive lower-limb exoskeleton can help older adults walk better and do daily activities more easily. You will wear the device during training sessions to see if it improves your movement and independence.
This trial tests a walking device called an exoskeleton to help people with leg weakness or movement problems. It's designed to see if using the exoskeleton regularly over time can help improve walking or mobility.
This trial tests a wearable robotic exoskeleton called EXPLORER that helps people with muscle or nerve conditions walk better. It aims to see if the device is safe and easy to use, and it may improve your mobility.
