Berkeley Bionics Exoskeleton

This is a really good looking bit of equipment currently under manufacture, the Berkeley Bionics Exoskeleton. A much more sleek and compact design than other similar exoskeletons, although I don’t think this exact model would support a paralysed person’s full body weight. This is more an assisting device for the able-bodied, but they’re definitely on the right track.
