According to the company, developed through a collaborative effort with Mawashi Science & Technology, this revolutionary product sets new standards in weight management and ballistic protection.
The ExoM Exoskeleton is set to enhance the capabilities of military and law enforcement personnel facing extended wear of heavy equipment and demanding high-level ballistic protection. By redistributing up to 70% of the load from the shoulders to the ground, this technology alleviates physical strain and mitigates injuries, allowing operators to focus on their duties.

The ExoM Exoskeleton not only redistributes load effectively, but also enhances survivability with top-tier ballistic protection, offering full-body coverage up to the VPAM 8 standard. Equipped with a flexible spine, sliding waist belt, and articulated hip, knee, and ankle joints, the ExoM Exoskeleton ensures operators maintain up to 99% ease and range of motion. This flexibility proves vital for navigating challenging terrains and confined spaces.
Functioning as a passive Exoskeleton, it operates without the need for external power sources. This feature makes it perfect for extended missions at remote locations, eliminating the necessity for heavy batteries and charging equipment.
