Overview
The Wearable Cyborg HAL (HAL) is a medical surgical and rehabilitation exoskeleton robot platform developed by CYBERDYNE. The CYBERDYNE page introduces the wearable cyborg HAL. HAL is a wearable cyborg designed to improve, assist, extend, and regenerate physical functions.
HAL controls its power units based on detected motion intentions to assist the wearer's movement. HAL detects the wearer's bioelectric potential signals via skin-mounted sensors. HAL combines voluntary and autonomous control systems to assist wearer movement. HAL reads weak bioelectric potential signals leaking from the skin surface.
Productized application areas for HAL include medical care, healthcare, and nursing support. HAL is also productized for heavy-duty work support in factories and construction sites. HAL is also applicable to disaster site recovery support activities.
In terms of perception, computation, and system integration, this model is equipped with high-precision force/torque sensors, optical/electromagnetic spatial tracking systems, and multi-joint absolute encoders. Onboard computation utilizes a medical-grade redundant real-time master-slave control unit, covering L1 technology stack. Development and selection teams can evaluate its motion envelope, load limits, and secondary development adaptability for target operational scenarios using official product documentation, motion control interfaces, and simulation assets (URDF/MJCF).
