Latest Invention - New Exoskeleton from Honda

In 2008 scientists managed to invent the first robotic exoskeleton. A number of these devices have already been sold. One of the most advanced robotic exoskeleton was the full-body HAL robotic suit, which represented the latest invention of the Japanese company Cyberdyne.

Though several robotic exoskeletons went on sale, the technology still remains far from mature. The majority of strength-boosting suits use electrodes in order to estimate the electrical activity in the muscles of an individual. The gained data is used to make sure that the suit indeed helps a person by moving in the same direction but with greater power.
