Description

HAL for Well-Being Single Joint Type is a compact powered exoskeleton module intended for intensive training of the arm or the knee joints. In the elbow configuration, the system assists flexion and extension exercises by detecting bio-electrical signals from the wearer’s skin surface and actuating a small power unit in response to the wearer’s intended movement.

CYBERDYNE lists a wearer-attached assisting part mass of approximately 1.5 kg (3.3 lb), excluding the control device and battery, with a range of motion of 0° extension to 120° flexion. CYBERDYNE also lists a separate HAL for Medical Use Single Joint Type (EU Model), which includes medical-use positioning and CE 0197 marking.
