Some robots never get old, they just get better, and so it is with the Hal-5. This robot exoskelton allows anyone who wears it, the potential to lift up to 5-times the weight they normally could. It works “by sensing weak electrical impulses from muscles via electrodes on operator’s skin and sending them to the onboard computer which in turn analyzes them and activates corresponding servos of the suit, mimicking wearer’s motions.” Available now for lease, priced at $15,000 per month.
