It weighs about 4 kilos, which is roughly the same as an average human arm, can lift up to 5 kilos, and moves at up to 3.4 meters per second, with a slight range of motion restriction intended to keep the operator from smacking the wearer in the face.
As researcher Catherine Véronneau told IEEE Spectrum, wearing the arm is "not too bad having this arm on my hips, since it’s only 4.2 kg (without payload) and it is located near my center of mass (to reduce inertia).
"I get used to it quickly, and I can compensate for some of the movements (x, y, and z translational movements), but I still have some remaining issues to compensate for torsion movements (like if the arm is hitting a tennis ball with a racket), which is funny! We also noticed that the harness needs to be rigidly connected to the body, because if there is some backlash between the harness and the body, it can be uncomfortable."
