German Bionic's new Apogee Ultra exoskeleton can lift up to 80 pounds and help with walking

Engadget

German Bionic, the robot exoskeleton startup behind the lightweight Apogee exosuit, just revealed the Apogee Ultra at CES 2025 in Las Vegas. This powered exoskeleton is intended to help people complete jobs that require heavy lifting or advanced movement. To that end, it offers dynamic lifting support of up to 80 pounds. This means that it can lift the entire thing or help a bit when people need it, sort of like how rider assist works with electric bikes. The company says "it makes physically demanding tasks feel effortless" and that lifting 70 pounds will feel like nine or ten pounds for the lower back.
