For several years, a Japanese company has been working on a robotic suit that could help the old and the sabled move like an able-bodied person. With their latest version, the Hal-5, they seem to have finally done it. Comprised of robotic limbs and a backpack containing a battery and computer system, the HAL is strapped on to the body, and entirely controlled by thought. When the wearer tries to move, tiny nerve signals in the skin are detected by HAL and converted into movements. So advanced is the technology that the company is already renting the robot suits.
