(Nasdaq: RWLK) (“ReWalk” or “The Company”), a leading provider of innovative technologies that enable mobility and wellness in rehabilitation and daily life for individuals with neurological conditions, today announced the first public U.S. demonstration of its innovative stairs-enabled exoskeleton at the upcoming Abilities Expo New York from Friday, May 5th to Sunday, May 7th.

ReWalk Robotics will feature demonstrations with ReWalk users at Booth #738 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. daily to showcase how this new technology enables individuals with spinal cord injury (“SCI”) to walk in real-world environments, including locations with stairs or curbs.
Recently cleared for use in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), ReWalk’s Stairs-Enabled Personal Exoskeleton was also granted “Breakthrough Device” designation as the only personal use exoskeleton to enable use on stairs and curbs. The added functionality is a significant advancement for those with SCI, expanding the use of their exoskeleton to a variety of different real-world obstacles and terrains in their home and community environment.
