This has the potential to change the lives of many:
A ROBOT suit has been developed that could help older people or those with disabilities to walk or lift heavy objects. Dubbed HAL, or hybrid assistive limb, the latest versions of the suit will be unveiled this June at the 2005 World Expo in Aichi, Japan, which opened last month. A commercial product is slated for release by the end of the year.A picture is available here. I'm waiting for the version that gives me the strength of Superman...or at least Steve Austin (and I'm not talking about the WWF copycat).
