Pocket-Sized Exoskeleton Earns Top Honors at CES 2026
VIGX today announced that its π6 Wearable Exoskeleton Sports Assist Robot has been named a Winner of the 2026 CES Picks Awards, earning top recognition in the TWICE Picks category. The award highlights products that stand out for innovation, usability, and real-world impact across the consumer technology landscape.
The CES Picks Awards—presented by leading industry publications including TWICE, TechRadar Pro, and Residential Systems—celebrate the most compelling technologies unveiled at CES. Being selected as a TWICE Picks winner places the VIGX π6 among the most influential and forward-looking products of the show.
Designed as a pocket-sized, foldable exoskeleton, the VIGX π6 challenges long-held assumptions about wearable robotics. Weighing under two kilograms and folding down to roughly the size of an umbrella, the π6 delivers powerful lower-body assistance in a form factor built for everyday life. The system provides intelligent torque support for walking, climbing, prolonged standing, and load-bearing activities—without the bulk or rigidity of traditional exoskeletons.
At the core of the π6 is VIGX’s philosophy of augmentation, not replacement. Advanced versions of the device integrate AI-powered perception and predictive motion assistance, enabling the system to anticipate terrain changes such as stairs or slopes and respond in real time. The result is a more natural gait, reduced fatigue, and a wearable experience that fades into the background while enhancing physical capability.
“This award validates our belief that exoskeletons don’t belong only in factories or clinics. The π6 was built to be personal, portable, and intuitive—something you can carry with you and use exactly when you need it. Being recognized by TWICE Picks at CES is a powerful signal that the market is ready for this shift.”
The π6 is developed by Shenzhen Kenqing Technology Co., Ltd., a national high-tech enterprise founded in 2015 and dedicated to advancing AI-powered exoskeleton robotics. Guided by principles of lightweight design, intelligence, and accessibility, the company aims to make wearable robots a natural extension of the human body.
With the CES TWICE Picks Award, VIGX solidifies its position at the forefront of a new era in personal wearable robotics—one where intelligent physical assistance is no longer confined to specialized environments, but becomes part of everyday life.
