After breaking his neck in a car accident in 21, Abdul Aldhfeiry has been made able to walk again for the first time with the assistance of a suit made by Esko Bionics. The exoskeleton was made of a backpack holding two motors at the hips, knees and ankles powered by two batteries that use sensors to contract movements. Esko Bionics are now planning to release an updated model that uses electrodes to help the individual use their own muscles to power the device.
