This trial is enrolling 100 participants with lower limb weakness or impairment to test the effect of an exoskeleton (Atalante X) on lower limb function. An exoskeleton is an externally worn powered robotic device to assist movement. If included, participants will undergo at least one supervised exoskeleton rehabilitation session per week over the first year. Following the initial phase, participants may voluntarily continue for an additional year with the same rehab program. Final testing of lower limb function will be performed after 2 years.
