Augmented Mobility
Developments are taking place in the field of mobility for decades. The latest one being the development of a military leg brace by team Roam Robotics, San Francisco.
Robotics have fascinated us for years, penetrating their way into sci-fi movies, fiction, and even video games. In real life, engineers have been working on them producing terrible results. While there’ve been some real breakthroughs in recent years, most of them are still bulky, prohibitively power-hungry, as well as expensive. Roam claims to have solved a lot of these problems.
The robotic knee brace promises to double your strength and endurance
in reduced-experience G-forces by half is lightweight, lasts up to eight hours, and is affordable. What makes it unique is that it uses pneumatic actuators instead of heavy motors and servos.
That means it’s using compressed air to augment your knee movements. And in theory, give you up to two times your own strength. It’s specifically designed for military members or fire responders. This is the first step in the road to the development of Mechanical body parts which can change the status of the disabled in the world.
