Unveiling the Apogee Ultra: The Next Generation of Robotic Exoskeletons at CES 2025
At CES 2025, German Bionic introduced a groundbreaking innovation, the Apogee Ultra, which they boldly claim to be the “world’s most powerful” robotic exoskeleton. So, what makes this system stand out? It offers an impressive 80 pounds of dynamic lift assistance, transforming a hefty 70-pound load into a mere 9 to 11-pound experience for the lifter’s lower back. Additionally, it eases long walks, making a 10-mile trek feel like just eight.
Targeting industries such as baggage handling and construction, where heavy lifting is routine, and sectors like healthcare, where workers are constantly on their feet, the Apogee Ultra aims to enhance human labor rather than replace it. This means achieving more with fewer employees while potentially reducing workplace injuries.
German Bionic reports that their exoskeletons have led to a remarkable 31% reduction in workplace sick leave.

The secret behind this efficiency lies in extensive refinement based on “vast amounts of high-quality, relevant data” from thousands of users in real-world scenarios. The Apogee Ultra also incorporates AI technology to tailor its support to each wearer’s unique requirements, promising to keep evolving through over-the-air updates.
The Apogee Ultra is now available for purchase on German Bionic’s website. However, specific pricing details remain undisclosed as of publication.
