After this long lead up, the Hypershell—in three models starting at $799—will be the first major consumer exoskeleton to go on sale on January 20. I was sent one of the first test units to try out, and an icy Midwest day gave me the perfect opportunity to imagine what life with an exoskeleton might look like.
Hypershell's AI engine will allow the ProX to better anticipate and adapt to the individual user's movements. The 4.4-lb (2-kg) waist-mounted device will fold down for easier carry, attaching to a backpack when not in use. It will work in temperatures as low as -20 ℃ (- 4 °F) and offer IP54 weatherproofing.
The Hypershell ProX uses artificial intelligence to sense your movements and adjust to your needs. It can switch between 9 different motion postures, from walking to running to climbing, and provide up to 800W of power to help you lift your legs more easily.
