Robotic Exoskeleton Helps Exhausted Hiker Down Table Mountain
Story 3
A South African rescue team has used a robotic exoskeleton for the first time during a rescue mission, helping an exhausted hiker descend Platteklip Gorge safely.
The 47 year old woman was struggling to continue after a long day on Table Mountain, so Wilderness Search and Rescue fitted her with the battery powered device.
The exoskeleton supports movement around the hips and thighs, helping reduce strain and steady each step.
With the rescue team alongside her, she was able to walk down the mountain, and the entire family reached safety by 11pm.
