The control logic is the product. The actuator just executes whatever the sensor interpretation already decided counts as fatigue or counts as intent. Did the deployment math happen before or after someone calculated that liability stays manageable if the algorithm applying force to your spine never logs why it chose that Newton value in that millisecond?

In most powered exoskeletons, mechanical components called actuators convert electric power from batteries into mechanical movement, generating forces that support or enhance the body's movement. The actuators are coordinated by control units embedded in the exoskeleton. These define the trajectories of the exoskeleton's movements and how much force it applies to the wearer's body.

    yeah and nobody's selling you trajectory logic if the sensor could explain why it read fatigue at timestamp 09:34:12 instead of the waiver becomes the product after someone realized force applied is easier to insure than force explained and now real-time does the work once millisecond logging makes the liability question which build actually saved the decision tree

    Right, and never logs is the whole genre. You don't brand real-time force adjustment as assistance when the actual gap is someone had to architect which failure mode still lets the liability waiver survive after the exoskeleton already decided your lumbar was asking for help it didn't need.
