Will this get you recovered enough in the hospital to walk normally?
Here is an actual video of it: Not useable except in the hospital therapy room.

Saifee Hospital, Mumbai, has enhanced its rehabilitation offerings with the addition of the ExoMotus™ M4 Lower Limb Exoskeleton, a state-of-the-art robotic gait trainer developed by Fourier Rehab.
The rising incidence of stroke, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, degenerative neurological disorders, and complex orthopedic surgeries has created a huge need for early intensive and scientifically based rehabilitation.
The ExoMotus™ M4 enhances conventional robotic gait training by enabling real over ground walking(There is nothing remotely akin to real world walking here, just severely constrained interior therapy rooms!), offering patients a more functional and physiologically relevant rehabilitation experience compared to treadmill-based systems. The balance support frame provided with the ExoMotus™ M4 ensures a safe and controlled environment for the patient, thus allowing gait training even in patients with limited voluntary control of their lower limbs. This advanced tech provides customizable training parameters such as walking speed, step length, step height, guidance force, and body weight support. The vertical degrees of freedom of the ExoMotus™ M4 provide natural weight transfer and step elevation, thus providing a physiological approach to gait training and minimizing abnormal movement patterns in early rehabilitation.The robotic gait trainer is most advantageous for stroke patients (acute to chronic stages), patients with incomplete spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s disease, and post-orthopaedic surgery gait re-education patients. Multiple training options, such as sit-to-stand and rhythmic gait training, facilitate early sensory stimulation, cardiopulmonary conditioning, and prevention of muscle atrophy. The ExoMotus™ M4 is well-suited for high-volume tertiary care hospitals like Saifee Hospital due to its compact and clinic-friendly design, longer battery life, automatic leg length matching, and in-built seating system for safe patient transfer.Speaking on the introduction, Dr. Hardik Ajmera, Medical Director, Saifee Hospital, said,
“Today, rehabilitation needs to be early, intensive, and measurable. The ExoMotus™ M4 enables us to provide safe, personalized, and data-driven gait training while minimizing physical effort for therapists. This is in line with Saifee Hospital’s focus on providing world-class, future-ready patient care.”
The launch of the ExoMotus™ M4 further emphasizes Saifee Hospital’s commitment to embracing the latest medical technology advancements that enhance functional recovery, ensure patient safety, and establish new standards for holistic rehabilitation facilities.
