German Bionic has unveiled the Apogee ULTRA, the world’s most powerful series-production robotic exoskeleton, designed to support workers in logistics, manufacturing, construction, and healthcare. Providing 80 lbs (36 kg) of lifting support, it enhances worker safety, reduces fatigue, and boosts productivity. Demonstrated at CES, this advanced exoskeleton integrates AI-driven machine learning to adapt to users’ needs and continuously improve through over-the-air (OTA) updates.
The Apogee ULTRA offers Ultra Mode for extra strength when lifting heavy loads or assisting patients. Workers also benefit from active walking support, making long shifts less exhausting. Companies using German Bionic exoskeletons report a 31% reduction in sick leave, improved worker retention, and extended career longevity.
Enhancing user engagement, the German Bionic Connect app tracks performance metrics such as steps taken and weight lifted, offering personalized insights and fostering worker involvement. The German Bionic IO platform provides real-time ergonomic safety monitoring, fleet management, and training resources through its video-based Academy.
CEO Armin G. Schmidt emphasizes that the Apogee ULTRA is more than a powerful exoskeleton—it’s a transformative tool for safer and more efficient workplaces. Available now, it sets a new benchmark in human augmentation technology, with future-proof updates ensuring long-term innovation and performance.
