How does it work
Who is this for?
For anyone who wants to see Budapest from above – views over the Danube and Parliament from Gellért Hill and the Castle District – without worrying about the climbs; and for anyone curious to try technology they've only ever seen in videos. The exoskeleton makes walking easier – it doesn't replace it.
