It happened when Michel Roccati pressed the small remote control on the right-hand side of his walker handle on a cold December 2021 day in the middle of Lausanne.

The first steps outside were incredible – a dream come true, says the Italian, who has been paraplegic since a motorcycle accident a few years ago due to an animal on the road and could no longer move his legs.
