WREX - WILMINGTON ROBOTIC EXOSKELETON
The Wilmington Robotic EXoskeleton, also called WREX, is a functional upper limb orthosis designed to enhance movement for individuals with neuromuscular disabilities of the upper extremity, including cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury (SCI), multiple sclerosis (MS), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Its lightweight exoskeleton approximates normal human anatomy. Linear elastic bands are used both for balance and to assist movement in three dimensions against the effects of gravity. These features provide extensive range of motion to aid in a variety of therapeutic and daily living activities. The orthosis can be attached to most common wheelchairs and mobility seating systems utilizing one of the three mount bases provided with the arm. A complete system consists of either a right or left orthotic arm with mount, and a forearm support. COLOR: Black.
