Une personne en situation de handicap retrouve son indépendance grâce à un robot

After losing the use of her legs due to a tumor in her spinal cord, Chloë Angus had a dream: to dance again. Confined to a wheelchair since 2015, she collaborates with the Human in Motion Robotics laboratory, which is developing an exoskeleton that will allow her to feel more alive. “The first time Chloë came to our lab, we immediately thought she would be the right person to help us better understand the user’s needs and develop this new technology,” says Siamak Arzanpour, co-founder and CEO of Human in Motion Robotics, the company behind the XoMotion exoskeleton. The scientist believes that the complex robot he and his team are working on could revolutionize the world of exoskeletons. It will allow people living with mobility impairments to walk freely, smoothly, and independently.
