Quick answer

Exo Motion Pro is a powered hip-assist wearable robot for selected adults who can already walk independently. It can assist movement during suitable walking, slopes and stairs, but it is not a wheelchair, full body-weight support system, medical treatment or universal replacement for a prescribed mobility aid. The most useful first step is a guided fitting on the person who may use it.

Understand the product before deciding

These reference pages explain the category, its practical limits and the questions a family should ask before choosing a free home visit, purchase, provider assessment or private rental.

Choose the right senior support pathway

No automatic approval: Exo Motion does not decide clinical suitability, prescribe equipment or approve funding. If funding is not approved, a suitable customer may still buy privately or enquire about a private weekly rental at A$129 per week with a four-week minimum.

Private purchase and weekly rental

Exo Motion Pro is listed at A$2,499 and includes personal fitting, training and a 12-month written warranty in addition to applicable Australian Consumer Law rights. For a suitable person who is not funded, is waiting for a decision or wants more time before purchase, Exo Motion can assess a private weekly rental at A$129 per week. The initial term is four weeks, or A$516, with continuation by written agreement and subject to stock, rental terms, service area, security arrangements and periodic equipment checks.

Rental and tourism information

Short-term tourism rental is a secondary service for suitable independent walkers. Sydney and Blue Mountains availability, delivery, fitting, payment, security pre-authorisation and return arrangements must be confirmed for the requested dates.

Commercial and international reference pages

Venue resources are kept separate from the senior pathway. They describe proposed operating models and do not imply a named attraction endorsement unless Exo Motion and the venue have announced one.

Knowledge Centre FAQ

What is a hip-assist exoskeleton?

It is a powered wearable device that supports movement around the hips and legs while a suitable person walks. It does not provide full body-weight support or replace a wheelchair, walker or prescribed aid.

Can every senior use Exo Motion Pro?

No. The person must be able to walk independently, understand instructions and meet the supported fitting range. A home visit is not a clinical assessment, and individual results vary.

Does AT-HM automatically fund the device?

No. An authorised assessor and Support at Home provider make the relevant assessment and approval decisions. Exo Motion can coordinate supplier paperwork with written consent but cannot guarantee funding.

What if funding is not approved?

A suitable customer may still buy privately or enquire about private rental at A$129 per week with a four-week minimum, subject to suitability, availability and written terms.
