Exoskeleton Market worth over $5 Bn by 2030

Exoskeleton Market size is set to surpass USD 5 billion by 2030, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights, Inc.
 

The market growth is attributed to the rising aging population across the globe. Aging in people leads to limited constant physical activities such as walking less frequently due to significantly reduced muscle mass and strength. The high incidence ratio of muscle pain, strokes, and other types of illnesses, particularly in the aging population, will increase the demand for treatment and rehabilitation, fueling the exoskeleton market progression.
 

The rising road fatalities across the world have resulted in the adoption of medical-grade wearable suits for rehabilitation purposes for people with spinal cord injuries. According to an article published by the National Library of Medicine in June 2022, each year between 250,000 and 500,000 patients suffer a spinal cord injury globally. The medical exosuits are installed in rehabilitation centers & hospitals, which support full-body motions such as standing, normal walking, bending, and carrying & lifting tasks. This will further boost the industry growth during the forecast period.
 

High costs associated with research & development and acquisition of products is the primary factor hindering the growth of exosuits in healthcare, industrial, and military sectors. The incorporation of multiple sensors and motors into the wearable suit significantly contributes to the product cost. Furthermore, research into the integration of appropriate software and hardware for calibration and customized usage will significantly raise the costs.
