What are some examples of soft robotic exosuits used in rehabilitation therapy, and how do they assist patients with mobility impairments or physical disabilities in walking, standing, or performing daily activities by providing powered assistance and support to the lower limbs?

Examples include EksoGT, ReWalk, and MyoPro soft robotic exosuits designed to enhance mobility and independence for individuals with spinal cord injuries, stroke, or neuromuscular disorders. Soft exosuits use lightweight actuators, flexible textiles, and intuitive control interfaces to augment lower limb movements, reduce energy expenditure, and facilitate gait rehabilitation in clinical or home settings.
