Honda not only makes great cars, they are also big on robotics. Honda has been working on a walking assist device since the end of the last decade and will parade it at this coming weekend in Osaka at the International Trade Fair on Barrier Free Equipments & Rehabilitation for the Elderly and the Disabled. Visitors are welcome to give it a try, and it apparently uses data obtained from hip angle sensors, where the control CPU will communicate with the flat brushless motors and provide the right amount of assistance for those who want to lengthen their strides. It weighs a mere 6.2lbs and is wrapped around the waist and thigh. Assuming you take 4.5km/h strolls, the battery life ought to last for two hours. Hopefully the final version will be affordable enough for the layman to purchase.Permalink | Comment | Uberbargain | Uberphones |
