HAL (Hybrid Assistive Limb)

HAL (Hybrid Assistive Limb) is a wearable robotic suit designed to help individuals with mobility challenges or those undergoing rehabilitation. It detects electrical signals generated by the user’s nervous system when they try to move, and then assists their muscles accordingly. This support enhances movement, reduces fatigue, and promotes faster recovery. HAL can be used by stroke patients, the elderly, or people with disabilities, enabling safer, more natural movements. Its sophisticated sensors and actuators work seamlessly to augment the user’s own efforts, ultimately improving independence and quality of life.
