If you incorporate electrical generator in the boots channel the extra power to the storage capacitors, add thermocouple for extra power as well as the self winding actions to thighs, ankles. Flexable solarpanels could be stitched into the fabrics just trying to help

In UK physio we describe walking as a series of controlled falls, one after another.

MY SON WALK WITH SUPPORT IS ANY CHANCE WE CAN HAVE THIS TYPE SUIT FOR HIM. IT LOOK GREAT INVENTION

@mistymeredith1935 4 жыл бұрын

great invention but as being a person who has cerebral palsy I have an issuse with balance. BALANCE is key to everything. I would love to try this but would need something that would assit in keeping my shoulders back and posture correct as well as lifting my feet. My gaint is a shuffle of sorts with the side of my foot sliding rather than lifting. Maybe a shoe type fitting in keeping everything there straight for me. I have dreamed of making something this ever since I was a little girl but I do not have the skills or knowledge to even know where to begin.

I would like to research exo suits in the future, I would like to ask if Harvard is planning on making exo suits that enhance all human abilities, not just walking but jumping, lifting, overall strength, etc. Last thing, can I talk to some of your top researchers? Please reply on this comment and I will give you my email.

I am using a cane for the disease Neuromyelitis optica. However, after rehabilitation, I was able to walk a short distance with just my feet. I want to be exosuit tester. I want to walk with my feet alone. And I want to run. I would like to climb Mt.Fuji. I climbed Mt.Fuji 5 times. I want to challenge Mt.Fuji again with this machine. Please give me a chance.

This is all very nice but these kinds of projects tend to stay/linger for too long in the lab and are eventually abandonded for the next interesting project. Of course, in the meantime PhD's are earned, scientific articles written and people that work on them move on. But how is this benefitting people in need of these kind of devices? Wouldn't it be more useful if it's put into production asap and any bugs and glitches fixed while in real world use? Or it must be perfect? Anyone who has built any useful product knows that you never achieve perfection but things could be used even if reasonably useful. For comparison, Google was continually driving around self driving cars trying to prove the concept forever appearent for no good reason while Tesla ACTUALLY deployed the software into the real peoples vehicles obviously benefitting consumers.

Money, funding is always the issue. I developed this system in 2001 and displayed it starting in 2002 in various industry mediums in Sweden, France, Washington DC and couple of State governments meetings NCSL and GHS. It was always funding that stood in the way of getting something into the hands of the consumer. see www.iq-telematics.com for the project. If I was to do what you suggest: "Wouldn't it be more useful if it's put into production asap and any bugs and glitches fixed while in real world use? Or it must be perfect? " I do not know how this version of my IP works yet, but No, it is not beneficial if we put a product that is not perfect into the hand of the people. When you study enough about Human Factor, you'll recognize that yes, It must be perfect, otherwise it will defeat the purpose of trying to save people's lives. p.s. I am not associated with this outfit.

Mouhamad A. Naboulsi I think he means to give itnto perfectly mobile people to see it's it works for a long time like a beta test for a game the people that it give feedback on things that go wrong and they can be fixed much faster then normal

Vaporware shall be illegal for that very reason. Every time any sort of public funding is used for those "projects" a contract shall be signed where failure to deliver will result in clawbacks.

Confined it's incredibly frustrating experience all this videos about Exodus skeletons are always aim at the future never come and never really materialize in any practical way shape or form and I've followed this for a while now and I'm not even a spring chicken anymore well God damn they have same exact narrative back in the ages 1980s and there's been a couple of years and you can't absolutely cannot find any of this stuff on the market damn why?
