Honda tests Walking Assist Device
Posted on Jun 30, 08 11:05 AM PDT
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. has started to test its experimental walking assist device by helping the elderly as well as folks with weakened leg muscles get around without any assistance, letting them regain their pride and mobility. If there is one country that needs this device, Japan is it considering the fact that they have the highest number of senior citizens within. The whole idea of this walking assist device is to help people relearn to walk safely and efficiently. I hope to see a commercial version ready soon without breaking the bank.

The walking device that Honda is coming out with looks fantastic. I had a severe stroke five years ago and I'm paralyzed on the right side I walk slowly with a cane and I wear a brace on my right leg. My gate is completely off. Sincerely, Ralph
