Abstrakt		This paper is attempting to discuss the developments in the FES field for mobility restoration occuring in the last 30 years. This developments are discussed in view of the evolution of the simple one channel foot drop correcting peroneal FES brace and with time emerging other FES devices as they were preposed in Ljubljana during this period. Only the progress steps and problems with perspectives for future developments in the FES field are highlighted. It is shown that technological insufficiencies and advances were limiting the FES field progress more than expected. Interesting is also the conclusion that clinically developed knowledge associated to the FES utilisation is with time little advancing or changing. This discussion of FES developmental events is showing that the FES field is still in its infancy and that major technological improvements enabling progress are still waiting to be introduced.
