He needed walking frame and his pace was unnatural, but he felt confidentW4 enough while walking to chat to the US researchers who developed the technology. The man had months of training to relearn to walk, including brain training, which involved playing a video game while wearing the cap and just by thinking about moving them to control the movements of a character on screen.
This fired up the necessary part of his brain to move his legs and made him formulate the sort of thoughts he would need to control his own movements.
Paralysed people have been made to walk in the past, but this is the first time the patient has used their own legs rather than an exoskeletonS—a batterypowered framework around the limbs.
British experts welcomed the breakthroughW5 but said the work was still at a very early stage. Researcher Dr Zoran Nenadic said the new device proved promising, but they say many years of work remains.
