Nimble Robotics :: Active Exoskeletons for Lower Limb Rehabilitation

Nimble Robotics is an Italian medical robotics company specializing in active exoskeletons for lower limb rehabilitation. Based in Turin, the company was born within the Politecnico di Torino ecosystem and focuses on developing innovative, CE-marked robotic devices to support gait rehabilitation for patients with neurological and orthopedic conditions. Nimble Robotics aims to improve mobility recovery, reduce therapist workload, and provide data-driven, personalized rehabilitation through advanced robotic technology.

The company’s flagship product is the Reho exoskeleton, a modular, active robotic system designed for clinical gait training.

Key features of Reho include:

• 6 Degrees of Freedom (hip, knee, and ankle joints on both legs) with independent intensity control for each leg.
• Anthropometric Adjustment — Easily adaptable to different patient sizes and body proportions.
• Real-time Biofeedback and data collection for therapists to monitor progress, muscle activation, and gait parameters.
• Modular Design — Can be used in overground walking, treadmill training, or partial body-weight support scenarios.
• Safety and Comfort — Lightweight structure with soft interfaces and multiple safety mechanisms.

Reho is intended for use in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and specialized clinics. It supports patients recovering from stroke, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and post-orthopedic surgery. The system allows therapists to focus on quality of therapy rather than physical support, enabling longer and more intensive sessions.

Nimble Robotics emphasizes a strong scientific foundation, with the Reho exoskeleton protected by three patents and developed through close collaboration with clinical partners. The company is part of the European innovation ecosystem and has received funding from programs such as Horizon 2020.
