With the help of a set of muscles called “wearable muscles,” people who have trouble moving their arms can move them again.

The shape of these muscles is like that of a shoulder sling. Also, this set of “wearable muscles” could help make the arms more flexible and strong.

Key facts!

• With the help of artificial intelligence (AI), devices are available to people who have lost their mobility.
• But most of these machines are either too big, too heavy, too hard to use, or too expensive.
• “Myoshirt” is a smart device that increases muscle input.
• This device learns what movements a person wants to make.
• Then it facilitates those movements by giving actions more force.
• “Hospitals have a lot of good equipment, but it’s usually very expensive and big,” say medical experts.
• Furthermore, there aren’t many technical tools that patients can use in their daily lives.
• The Myoshirt is a type of vest.
• It comes with a small box that holds all of the technology that doesn’t go on the body directly.
• It works like an artificial muscle for the arms and shoulders, but it is comfortable enough to wear.
• Smart technology picks up on the user’s movements, and the device stays in sync with those movements.
• The user is always in charge of the device.
• In addition, the user can change the settings whenever they want.
