Mechanical exoskeleton has been very hot in recent years, there are a lot of media related reports, we can also see mechanical exoskeleton in many film and television works, the most famous is Avatar, but the film and television drama is still a film and television drama, and the reality of the existence of certain differences. Previously, a program hosted by Sabine also introduced a mechanical exoskeleton, then let the weightlifters are impressed. Mechanical exoskeletons, also called powered exoskeletons, are steel structures that can be worn by the human body, mainly by providing additional capacity to assist the limbs to carry out movement. It can now be used in the military, for carrying some weapons and equipment, which can save manpower; can be used for rescue, to save rescue time and reduce the risk of rescue; can also be used for people with disabilities as their prosthetic limbs, to facilitate their lives.
I. For military use.
Now the military emphasizes high-tech combat, if the use of large equipment to move weapons and other equipment is easily exposed, if the use of mechanical exoskeletons, both to complete the equipment to move, but also to improve the safety factor, the most important thing is that a soldier plus a mechanical exoskeleton can be used to move a lot of large equipment, very convenient and practical. Some time ago, a news report soldiers with the help of mechanical exoskeletons to move the need to destroy the weapons and equipment, from the previous 4 people struggling to move into 2 people easy to move, enough to see the degree of convenience.
Two, for rescue.
Natural disasters always occur suddenly, this time every minute and every second is very precious, save a second may be more than one life, if encountered in the earthquake, the road is damaged, large-scale rescue equipment can not be quickly to the scene, the need for mechanical exoskeletons, which can be quickly reached, but also can quickly work to remove obstacles to save the stranded masses. If it is used in rescue, it can definitely have high rescue efficiency.
Thirdly, it is used for disabled people.
There are many disabled people at present, some people have been staying in the house without going out because of mobility problems, and after a long time, people will become more and more depressed, if we can let the mechanical exoskeleton become their prosthetic limbs, then they will not have any more worries when they go out and they can also earn their own living to reduce the burden of life for the country and themselves.
Do you have any other good insights about the application areas of mechanical exoskeletons?
