“The Wearable Cyborg™ – HAL is powered by Cybernics.” HAL is the sole robot capable of offering suitable responses to brain movements. The technology developed is founded on the innovative idaea of the Internet of Things.
Uses of HAL
Cyberdyne Treatment utilises HAL to enhance and restore the functionality of the wearer, focusing on conditions such as spinal cord injury, stroke, and neuromuscular diseases.
The Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) is a robotic technology designed to augment or enhance the physical abilities of users, specifically benefiting individuals with mobility challenges.
By tracking the user’s centre of gravity and movement direction, the ‘Wearable Cyborg™’ known as HAL improves the user’s physical mobility
HAL Treatment and techniques
The following is a highly specific treatment regimen…
- Idaea
Any physical movement in an individual’s body sets off corresponding actions in their brain. When a person thinks “I would like to take a walk,” the brain sends the required signals to the muscles involved in the movement.
- Signal
In a well-functioning body, every muscle can receive signals from the brain and move with the intended strength and speed. HAL achieves this through technology that stimulates the nerves.
- Reading Signals
HAL can interpret bioelectric signals by using specially designed sensors attached to the wearer’s skin. By combining different data, HAL can understand the types of movements the wearer wants to make.
- Motion
HAL and man both have the ability to instantly process different information and promptly control the power unit. When the body begins to move, HAL also starts moving simultaneously, allowing HAL to assist the wearer’s movements.HAL, as well as man, are able to process various information instantly and control the power unit promptly. When the body starts moving, HAL starts moving at the same time, and so HAL is able to assist the wearer ‘s motions.
- Feedback
Our brain initially verifies the body’s movements based on certain signals. Once HAL effectively supports the “walking” movements, the sensation of “I can walk!” is relayed back to the brain. This enables the brain to progressively learn how to produce the required signals for “walking,” ultimately facilitating the “crucial first step” in enabling physically challenged individuals to walk without HAL’s assistance.
Rehabilitation with Cyberdyne

The Wearable Cyborg™ – HAL assists in increasing physical strength and stamina, helping you get back on your feet. Revolutionary therapies and improved quality of life for those in need are the result of clinically innovative rehabilitation robots in physical therapy. The goal is to create a better future through the research, development, and production of innovative Cybernics systems, with a focus on enhancing medicine, welfare, and daily life.
Patient Testimonial
Derrick expresses his gratitude to everyone at Brooks Rehabilitation and Cyberdyne as he departs from the Brooks Cybernic Treatment Centre after three months. He believes that the future is more promising for individuals with severe injuries. Being one of the first few patients in the US to utilise Cyberdyne HAL has been a great honour for him.
