FX Stick exoskeleton for industrial sitting by Archelis Inc.

The Archelis is a passive exoskeleton for the lower body without a chair. It allows the user to walk freely, but can be locked in place as a high chair or stool at any time. The company offers two occupational variants, one for medical professionals such as surgeons who sometimes have to stand and hover over a patient for many hours at a time, and one for industrial workers. The Archelis is designed to allow the user to work standing for extended periods of time without straining their legs and lower back. Maintain freedom of movement while wearing the exoskeleton. No battery or other power source is needed, it is a purely mechanical device. Can be worn on different body shapes with a simple adjustment. The different variants of the Archelis weigh between 2.3 kg and 2.7 kg (5.07 lb to 5.95 lb). It is suitable for users 4.9 to 6 feet (1.5 to 1.8 m) tall and up to 176 lb (80 kg) for the larger model. In early 2021, the Archelis will be sold both as a product and as a rental model for 12/24/36 months.

Archelis mode:

Allows walking and supporting the body with slightly bent knees.

Standing Mode:

Supports the body while standing. Externally, it looks like the user is just standing in place, but the passive exoskeleton actually supports them.
