Rex bionic legs help this man walk

Some of you may remember the story of Oscar the cat, bionics, and how he gave to go since my legs. Rex is a set of bionic legs, ready to ensure a person will walk again.

I have included a video after the jump, Hayden Allen, a man who has not been able to walk for five years. However, it is now learning to run and Rex.

Certainly, it seems a bit slow on foot, but he is on his feet and can handle stairs. Reviews checks on their hands, and how easy it is for him, his legs to bring into the course Rex out of his wheelchair. He said it takes about five minutes.

Now it is the kind of bionic technology, we want to hear, is not it? I think one of the things I noticed on the video really lucky that Hayden needs to go back. I would in any case more bionic healing in daily life to see. Obviously, holding his legs can move, the blood circulation, reduce infections for those who no longer use their legs.

Of course, this technique is very expensive, and a pair of legs costs about $ 150,000.
