In our ongoing commitment to delivering a better product experience, we’ve made significant improvements in design and functionality compared to the initial development and crowdfunding phase. These upgrades have required the use of higher-quality materials and components, resulting in increased costs.
Drawing from official communications, user feedback, and discussions across social media and forums, we've compiled a comprehensive wishlist of features that users hope to see in future iterations of the Hypershell exoskeleton.
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.
Hypershell exoskeleton helps provide power to move your legs with more strength and to lift your legs more easily. It is not approved by the FDA as a medical device, so you should not use it instead of any medical care or for any health-related reason.
