At IFA Berlin this week, Hypershell introduced Halo, its new flagship consumer exoskeleton featuring motorised assistance across hips and knees. The design marks a notable shift from previous models, offering unprecedented full‑leg support in a portable form factor.
Built for real‑world mobility
The Halo combines carbon‑fibre construction with AI intelligence, delivering power to four joints in a single unified system. Despite its advanced mechanics, it folds down to under 8 litres, making it backpack‑compatible, and meets IP54 weather‑resistance standards ([wareable.com](https://www.wareable.com/wearable-tech/hypershell-halo-full-leg-exoskeleton-ifa-2026-announcement?utm_source=openai)).
AI‑driven joint coordination and natural feel
Hypershell’s Halo represents a major leap over prior hip‑only exoskeletons. It integrates coordinated control across hip and knee joints, delivering smoother, more natural movement. A new conversational AI assistant, “Shelly,” guides setup and helps with route planning ([wareable.com](https://www.wareable.com/wearable-tech/hypershell-halo-full-leg-exoskeleton-ifa-2026-announcement?utm_source=openai)).
Commercial rollout and pricing
The Halo is priced at approximately £2 199 / US $2 299 / €2 299. Hypershell is now accepting pre‑orders for a limited “Origin Edition” of 200 units, with official deliveries scheduled to commence in November 2026 ([wareable.com](https://www.wareable.com/wearable-tech/hypershell-halo-full-leg-exoskeleton-ifa-2026-announcement?utm_source=openai)).
Takeaway: The Halo pushes consumer wearable robotics forward, blending powerful, full‑leg assistance with portability and intuitive AI control—bringing sophisticated exoskeleton support from the lab to everyday use.
