Tired of your enslavement to our cruel, sprocket filled, titanium encased robotic overlords? Well now, from the land of the rising sun, home of strange devices and beautiful beguiling women, comes your chance to end that silly resistance to smooth white plastic encasement and cool blue limb accentuation.
Coming soon for real, for under 5000.00 bucks, is the Human Assistive Limb Exoskeleton. It was created for the purpose of helping folks with degenerative muscle diseases and other get around issues but looks practical for a ton of other purposes. Has a 5 hour battery life and looks oh my god cool. Just the beginning for this kind of thing. I predict a revolution not only in motor support augmentations but also in limb replacement technologies like Dean Kamen’s artificial arm. Thanks Gizmodo for the heads up.
