Hey everybody,
I wasn't sure where to post this on Dimensions but thought it would be of interest to those who unfortunately may have trouble getting around due to their size. So, I figured this would be the right board to start this thread.
Honda has developed robotic legs that people can wear to assist with walking, crouching, climbing stairs, etc. Right now it can only enhance the person's natural ability to walk but maybe sometime soon it could allow paraplegics the ability to be upright too. Anyway, for those of you interested in reading more, there's a link provided below...
