The Swiss company Noonee, has now developed a solution for relieving the strain on legs and backs that is both imaginative and simple – the chairless chair. Unlike other exoskeleton concepts, the batteries of the chairless chair are not limited to only lasting a few hours, but rather they can last several days.

The focus of the development of the Chairless Chair 2.0. has been the improvement of the walking comfort as well as the flexibility.
To ensure this the weight of the exoskeleton was significantly reduced and the range of sizing enlarged. The flexible material of the belt adapts to the body shape, ensuring a tight fit.
