Robotic Exoskeleton Helps Paraplegics Walk
Exoskeleton are full of science-fiction coolness. But an exoskeleton that enables paraplegics to walk? That is a whole lot of double rainbow epicness! The Rex Robotic Exoskeleton is designed to give paraplegics the ability to perform daily tasks while standing. Pros: Gives you the chance to walk again, you look like a you're Ripley driving a loader. Cons: Costs $150,000, you look like a you're Ripley driving a loader.
Note to self: If you become paralyzed, make sure you have Bruce Wayne money.
Check out the video below to see the suit in action.
