The Robotic Exoskeleton Exo-H3
Robotic Exoskeleton Exo-H3
The Exo-H3 is the latest version of Technaid’s lower limbs robotic exoskeleton. This new version incorporates several improvements and is now more versatile, robust and reliable for your research. Among these improvements we can mention:
Security mechanisms as power shut-off button and mechanical stops.
Wider area for hips attachment
Better electronic integration for an improved form factor
Wider mobility ranges for a more human like performance
Redesign of connectors for a faster connection.
Our most sophisticated walking exoskeleton
Exo-H3 emulates the process of human walking replicating a predefined gait pattern through six actuated joints in the sagittal plane. Thus, the exoskeleton legs can assist people that have partially lost the ability to walk after suffering a stroke, contributing to the current neurorehabilitation research.
Because it has been specifically designed for research, it allows the implementation of own algorithms as well as the application of different robotic control strategies. This, together with its ability to adapt to different sizes, provides a wide range of possibilities when carrying out the experiments.
Adjustable interface for ease of use
The walking exoskeleton has an Mobile app as interface to operate the basic functions of the exoskeleton such us gait speed, motor assistance or stand up and sit down commands directly with the internal Main Controller. It also could be equipped with an single-board computer (SBC) to interface between the internal Controller and a ROS (Robot Operating System) network

FAQs
What is the Exo-H3 Exoskeleton?
The Exo-H3 Exoskeleton is a lower limb wearable robotic exoskeleton device focused on neurorehabilitation research, whose main objective is to assist and enhance the mobility of end users with motor disabilities.
How do I use the walking exoskeleton?
To use the walking exoskeleton, the Exo-H3 has a powerful and intuitive mobile application for the execution of functional tasks such as standing or walking, as well as different programming interfaces that facilitate the implementation of more complex and personalized tasks. It is important to follow the provided specific guidelines and safety instructions.
Where can I buy the robotic Exoskeleton Exo H-3?
To purchase the Exoskeleton please contact us
Can I use this walking exoskeleton for personal use?
No, the Exo H-3 exoskeleton cannot be used for personal use as it has been designed as a research tool in rehabilitation, neurorehabilitation and robotic control areas. It can only be used in a controlled environment and under the supervision of an expert.
How does the Exo-H3 help with research?
The exoskeleton allows the study of new rehabilitation and physical assistance techniques aimed at improving the motor skills of people. In this way, the Exo-H3 offers an open communication architecture that allows its integration with third-party systems so that researchers can design new movement control strategies that improve the physical and cognitive interaction between the human and the exoskeleton
Are there any complementary accessories?
Yes, there are complementary elements available that can be purchased separately from the exoskeleton, such as a second battery for continued use of the device or the extension bars needed to reach the maximum (2.1 m) and minimum (1.1 m) heights.
In addition, our IMU sensors Tech-IMU V4 and our MoCap system Tech-MCS can also be integrated with the device to obtain a wider amount of data.
Is the exoskeleton adjustable for different users?
Yes, the exoskeleton is adjustable to accommodate different users’ sizes and shapes. It can be used by people from 1.1 m to 2.1 m tall and between 40 and 100 kg body weight. In general terms, the exoskeleton can be worn by subjects who at least have residual mobility in the legs and can maintain trunk control.
