Abstract
In general, exoskeletons are defined as wearable robotic mechanisms for providing mobility. In the last six decades, many research work have been achieved to enhance the performance of exoskeletons thus developing them to nearly commercialized products. In this paper, a review is made for the lower limb exoskeleton concerning history, classification, selection and development, also a discussion for the most important aspects of comparison between different designs is presented. Further, some concluding remarks are withdrawn which could be useful for future work. Keywords: Exoskeletons, Lower extremity exoskeleton, Wearable robot
