SKELETONICS ARRIVE
SKELETONICS ARRIVE, our latest model, offers unique functions and new techniques. For the first time, we have succeeded in connecting the upper and lower body, which reduces the burden on the wearer. We’ve also dramatically reduced the suit-up time. While wearing the Arrive, you’ll be able to move in ways impossible for humans to achieve alone.

SERVICES
EVENTS / EXHIBITION RENTAL
Skeletonics offers the public the opportunity to wear a 9-foot giant exoskeleton suit during events and exhibitions, both indoor and outdoor. This fascinating opportunity magnetizes wearers and spectators alike. We can customize exterior parts and develop demonstration show plans that seamlessly mesh with your event.
ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Skeletonics exoskeleton suits the best showcase of their undeniable attraction in the world of live entertainment. For example, on New Year’s Eve 2014, Skeletonics made its debut at the 65th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen (the rough equivalent of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin Eve), sharing the stage with singer sensation Kiyoshi Hikawa. When multiple suits go into live-action simultaneously, Skeletonics deliver an even more powerful performance.
CUSTOM R&D
Do not hesitate to consult with us about the products you want to develop. Skeletonics can be custom-designed upon request. We are committed to supporting your vision and executing innovative designs - frames, circuits and entire robots - to your specifications.
THE CRAFT OF SKELETONICS
01
ROBOT TECHNOLOGY
01
ROBOT TECHNOLOGY
Skeletonics technology connects the mechanical and electrical components of the suit with the wearer’s body to offer a smooth, harmonious experience of movement. This integrated technology is our unique strength, which we are using to develop robots that can be used in the field.
02
MIRROR TECHNOLOGY
02
MIRROR TECHNOLOGY
Skeletonics robots use mirror technology to replicate human movements. The Skeletonics system uses a link mechanism, not an electrical system, to synchronize human movements with those of the robot exoskeleton. The mirror technology can synchronize remotely and works with robots larger or smaller than humans.
04
EXTERIOR TECHNOLOGY
04
EXTERIOR TECHNOLOGY
When it comes to entertainment, the exterior look of a robot is critical. For performance, the lightest possible weight is necessary, so as not to degrade performance. To accomplish both these goals, we frequently use reinforced resin FRP for our robot exteriors. We can also custom-design exteriors with minimal effects on our robots’ basic performance.

MECHATRONICS TECHNOLOGY
03
MECHATRONICS TECHNOLOGY
Skeletonics uses a fusion of mechanics and electronics--mechatronics technology--to make more precise movements of the fingers. By combining these two technologies, our robots can express movement with greater precision and perform more complex functions.

SKELETONICS PRACTICE
"SKELETONICS PRACTICE" was our first mass-produced sales model. Despite the upper body’s complex construction, we improve its operability as well as the speed of production. We streamlined the lower body, reducing the burden on the legs and making it easier for a wearer to board the suit’s legs.
