Created "cyber-suit" to help walk
For many years, in which technology and innovation did not appear among the standards that people could have their ideals, the way in which disabled persons were transported was archaic and especially so uncomfortable; and with the appearance of the wheelchair, this was improved to the point of being one of, if not the only, alternative to transport a person who can not move completely or can not move legs from one place to another.
In this regard, researchers and especially engineers, have tried to create machines that allow people with these problems, unable to move without any difficulty.
Due to the urgent need to resolve this, they were born exoskeletons, which are nothing but costumes or electromechanical frames that enhance the movements of those who have placed, allowing, for example, that a person with leg problems, to walk . One of the lightest and modern, is called Phoenix, devised by a lot of researchers lab human and robotic engineering from the University of California.
This suit has two engines on the sides and weighs just over 12 kilograms, therefore, anyone who wears allows you to have a relatively normal mobility, of course, be achieved by setting up or slow down. It has a single battery that will give you a range of at least four hours of continuous use or 8 hours if it is intermittent. Fully adaptable to the body of any person and is fully adjustable for better comfort and better use of their skills.
