Exoskeleton Arrives, Terminators not Far Behind

Sarcos Exoskeleton
An experimental robotic exoskeleton from Sarcos turns ordinary soldiers into super-soldiers. Wouldn't we all just love to do 200lb pull downs, bench press 500lbs with utter ease, and flip heavy car batteries with our own personal exoskeleton hook? Who doesn't love half-man half-machine stories with superhuman strength? Bionic Man, DC Comic hero Cyborg, etc. etc. Well, be prepared to be blown away by this video.

The helmet bears a striking resemblance to Master Chief's helmet in Halo, Halo2, and Halo3. Once again science fiction bears reality. Of course, let's just hope the Covenant, the Flood, the Skynet nor the nearly indestructible Terminator T-101 and T-1000 come to pass.

This is great stuff. I can see applications in robotic prostate surgery. To help cut down surgeon fatigue.

OK, that's super cool. Just imagine what you could do!
