Vigx π6 Pocket Exoskeleton Delivers 800W Power Assist
Human augmentation technology has officially entered a new personalised era. VIGX will soon launch the first pocket-sized portable exoskeleton robot, π6. Its ultra-light body weighs just 1.9 kg total. It delivers peak power of 800 W and torque of 16 N•m. It overturns the idea that power must always come with bulk. VIGX expects the π6 to launch in early June 2026.
The π6 is a portable companion robot. Its pocket-sized design brings the promise of "carrying enhanced power with you wherever you go." Users can slip it out of a pocket or bag and put it on in seconds. They can then access professional-level power assistance straight away.
The π6 delivers serious performance. It produces up to 800 W of power and 16 N•m of torque. It supports users weighing between 45 kg and 120 kg. It offers a maximum range of 40 km. It can help you save up to 30% of physical exertion.
The π6 also brings intelligence. It is the VIGX AI-powered exoskeleton robot, with both a "brain" and "eyes". It includes a quad-core AI processor and a dual-camera vision system. It analyses terrain in real time with response times as fast as 30 milliseconds. It triples recognition accuracy. It can identify complex road conditions such as slopes and it actively adjusts power output to keep each step efficient and stable.
The π6 uses a modular design. It includes a detachable, wearable power belt that houses a 92 Wh battery for lightweight, portable use. It can also charge devices such as smartphones and speakers.
Why create an exoskeleton robotics company? "To empower ordinary people," answered company founder Bob Yu. VIGX aims to expand human physical limits. It wants to enable deeper outdoor adventures. It wants to make running and cycling easier and more enjoyable. It also wants people to keep enjoying the outdoors at any age.
The π6 made its debut at CES, marking the shift of "wearable robotics" into a new era of "portable wearables." It defines a new category of "pocket-sized exoskeletons." This technology will accelerate global adoption of exoskeleton devices.
