Vanderbilt exoskeleton

Do you know what a robot is? It's like a machine that can move and do things on its own.

The Vanderbilt Exoskeleton is a special kind of robot that can help people who have trouble moving their legs. This can be because they had an injury or illness that made it hard to use their legs, or they might have a condition they were born with.

The exoskeleton is designed to fit around the person's legs and back, almost like a suit of armor. It has special motors and sensors that can help the person move their legs in a way that feels natural.

When the person wants to take a step, the exoskeleton senses their movement and helps lift up their leg. This means they can walk even if they wouldn't be able to on their own.

The exoskeleton is really helpful because it allows people to do things they might not have been able to do otherwise, like walk around or climb stairs. It's also cool because it's like they have a robot friend helping them!
