HANK

HANK by GOGOA is the premiere lower body rehabilitation exoskeleton designed in the European Union. It features a hip-knee-ankle actuation scheme. It is designed primarily for gait rehabilitation, but there is also a version for personal use called Robotic Neuro-Rehabilitation and Robotic Neuro-Mobility, respectively.

In 2016, around 20 HANK exoskeletons were already in service, and the product has undergone multiple iterations since.

Description

HANK is a lower limb gait training exoskeleton with actuation to the hip, knee, and ankle in the same plane of movement.  Designed for:

  • Adults 1.5 meters to 1.95 meters in height
  • Maximum body weight of 100 kg (220 lb)
  • To be used for stroke and neurological conditions
  • Paralysis due to spinal cord injury

Specifications:

  • Made using lightweight aluminum 7075
  • Mechanically limited range of motion for safety

Reportedly, the HANK is undergoing a new revision that will feature a lightweight but visually appealing external casing.  The HANK is a unique exoskeleton that uses design input from the West and East.  It shares commonality with American and Japanese rehabilitation exoskeletons.
