Exoskeletons and Wearable Robotics
We have gone through a digital revolution and are now on the verge of a physical revolution. Join Borislav "Bobby" Marinov of the Exoskeleton Report and Prof. Thomas "Tom" Sugar of the Wearable Robotics Association as we explore a world of devices that can help you get things done faster and safer.
We will cover occupational/industrial, medical, military, and consumer exoskeletons.

Join Dr. Tom Sugar (Wearable Robotics Association) and Bobby Marinov (Exoskeleton Report) as we recap RehabWeek 2025, a world leading conference for rehabilitation robotics, medical exoskeletons, and neurotechnology which was held in Chicago this May.
In this episode, Tom shares highlights from the exhibition floor, where 6+ societies united to showcase the future of human mobility. Hear firsthand impressions of cutting-edge exoskeletons and rehab technologies from:
• RobotCT — lower-limb and pediatric exoskeletons
• XoMotion — hands-free self-balancing gait systems
• Wandercraft — autonomous walking exoskeletons
• NextStep Robotics — powered ankle assistance for drop foot
• Fourier Rehab — upper- and lower-limb therapy robots and humanoid assistants
• ⚙️ Robotomize — hip, shoulder, and hand rehabilitation devices
Plus, a recap of a powerful moment when content creator Blue Eye Queen stands and walks again for the first time in months using a new hands-free fall-safe mobility device.
RehabWeek 2025 was more than a conference, it was a glimpse into how wearable robotics and rehabilitation technology are reshaping independence, recovery, and mobility.
