I got the Dnsys Z1 mainly because I want to do more hiking and wanted extra support for my knees and legs. I’ve only started using it, but so far I can definitely feel the difference. It gives me more support and makes walking feel more stable, especially on uneven ground.Once it’s on and adjusted right, it feels pretty solid.

Johnny Huen

I received my Z1 and tested it with great satisfaction! Despite its weight, it isn’t punishing on flat paths—it's very pleasant to walk with. For steep climbs, it’s a remarkable aid. It takes a long time to ship, but the Z1 is definitely worth the wait. Patience!

I’m a volunteer firefighter in the US. I believe the Z1 would make a real difference in our line of work. When you’re running a charged hose line, especially up stairs, it would help you keep your stride so you can focus on fighting fires instead of fighting fatigue. I wholeheartedly love the Z1! I can't think of a better use case for this hardware.

Happy Knees! With my new Dnsys Z1 boostsuit! Up or Down the stairs are so much easier with the Z1 power boost!

batteau62

I believe it's a great product. Whether you're recovering from an injury or on a vacation that involves a lot of walking, hiking, or climbing, it's an excellent tool. It makes rehab movements like lunges much easier. I feel like Iron Man, that's cool!"

Physical Therapist

For reference my pain level would be about a 7. Yesterday I was probably a 3, so it wasn’t a bad day and I could go one step after the other, but still would hold the railing. With the Z1 I felt ultra comfortable and less stress on my knee that I was going down & up in the center of the staircase not holding any railing!

Steven Thibodeau

En montée, l’appareil aide à économiser l’énergie. En descente, il réduit l’impact sur les genoux et les articulations, améliore la sécurité et redonne confiance aux personnes ayant des blessures.

La tanière de JR

The difference is incredible. Without gravity holding you back, movement feels free and unrestricted. Going downstairs, stepping over stones or taking bigger strides works perfectly. The ZI responds excellently to faster, daily movements.

Hear It from the Pros

Watch how experts and creators reviewed the Dnsys X1.

The World's First Knee Exoskeleton. Built for power and protection: A knee exoskeleton with a three-point support design that transmits motor force to padded supports behind the thigh and calf, offloading pressure from the knee. It assists during standing up, stair and slope ascents/descents, and squats to reduce knee impact and improve stability; getting up from a chair feels easier and requires less effort. Ideal for hiking, steep slopes, skiing, cycling assist, and everyday stairs.

"Dnsys is making a strong case for 'powered clothing' for weekend hikers and aging boomers alike. We have lived through a digital revolution, which has completely changed how humanity communicates and shares knowledge."

"Its lift assistance reportedly makes the person feel 44 lb (20 kg) lighter when standing up, climbing slopes, jumping, or squatting repeatedly."

"The ZI's light weight is due in part to the company's custom DNA-1 motor design, which allows the exoskeleton to be lighter and more powerful than competitors using off-the-shelf motors. ”

"Once you strap the Z1 on, it will learn your patterns and predict your movements, tailoring the amount of motor assistance you get instantly and in accordance with your environment. This makes descents smoother, ascents more effortless, and other activities less taxing on the body, particularly the knees."
