    Stand Taller. Walk Stronger.TM Our AgilikTM smart orthosis is a powered orthotic designed to improve crouch gait.

    Bionic Power’s purpose is to design and develop lower-body smart orthoses that improve quality of life by enhancing personal mobility and walking abilities.

    Stand Taller, Walk StrongerTM

    Bionic Power has tested our energy harvesting exoskeleton with the Canadian, US, and Israeli militaries: running through obstacle courses while wearing the exoskeleton to make sure they do not hinder movement; marching through the jungles of Hawaii and the deserts of Israel to see how much energy our first exoskeleton could harvest from the negative work done by the knees. We are working with patients to determine the effects of the Agilik. The Israel Defense Forces are currently working with Bionic Power to increase the metabolic benefit of the augmented Amplify non-medical exoskeleton.

    Our Agilik medical device is the result of over ten years of research and development for the harvester and the Amplify non-medical exoskeleton. The Agilik smart orthosis is currently in clinical trials to see just how much extension we can add to patients’ gait and how much easier we can make it for them to walk. New trials of our products are expected this year to further advance product development.

    The AgilikTM smart orthosis helps patients retain or increase their independence and mobility. This is especially critical in children with cerebral palsy, spina bifida and other knee-extension-deficiency disorders whose strength and endurance often deteriorate as they get older. The AgilikTM functions by assisting or resisting knee extension and flexion throughout the gait cycle. Approximately 50% of adolescents with CP who can walk, will be unable to do so in early or middle adulthood.* Our hope is to stop, or even reverse, this deterioration specifically by reducing crouch gait, increasing extension and strengthening their legs, enabling them to Stand Taller, Walk Stronger.TM

    The Bionic Power AmplifyTM provides a light, leg-based, multi-purpose non-medical, augmenting exoskeleton.
