What is the walking exoskeleton? Who can use it, and why?

A research team from the Centre interdisciplinaire de recherche en réadaptation et intégration sociale (Cirris) working with the walking exoskeleton used at the Institut de réadaptation en déficience physique de Québec (IRDPQ) has created a comic strip in collaboration with cartoonist Martin Patenaude-Monette.

The comic strip aims to provide a better understanding of this technology and its use. It facilitates open dialogue on how the technology works and how it can be used, enabling users’ expectations of the technology to be better modulated.
