ASH in detail

Modular, lightweight, compact and robust.

ASH was our first lower-limb exoskeleton. DASH focused its research and development on a design featuring modularity, low weight, compactness and robustness, built to help paraplegic people walk, sit down, stand up and climb stairs.

  • ModularityBuilt as a modular system.
  • LightweightLow weight as a core design goal.
  • CompactnessA compact build close to the body.
  • RobustnessMade for real-life use.

RACE in detail

Our new exoskeleton and the focus of all current work.

ASH is retired. Everything we learned from it now flows into RACE, which is being designed, built and tested in our current projects: from the backpack housing and the joint and frame validation to motor driver firmware, power distribution and the finite-state machine that controls it.

RACE is an early prototype. Its frame, joints and electronics evolve project by project, and you can help shape them.

02What is an exoskeleton?

Helping paraplegic people regain their mobility.

Exoskeletons are wearable robots that can augment, reinforce, or restore human limb and muscle performance. They can be used in various fields, including assisting paraplegic people to regain their mobility and helping them with everyday tasks.

03What we build for

Empowering paraplegic individuals to perform everyday activities.

We’re working hard to empower paraplegic individuals to perform everyday activities that many of us take for granted, such as walking forward, sitting down, standing up from a bench, and even navigating stairs.
