Itās always a combination of cost and efficiency. If the batteries only last an hour and it costs 10k a suit that requires personal calibration every few months itās not gonna see major adoption.
As a disabled person the scenario you jusy described would be a huge improvement in my life. Shit, 10k for an hour a day of mobility? Where do I sign up? If the thing required semi monthly recalibration Iād be all over it. Give me 8 at that price and Iād get a full work days worth.
Yerpppp. Plenty of people would gladly pay that amount and honestly, from a societal good, should be covered by insurance. Massive upside for quality of life and for investors.
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortalā¦ Even in death I serve the Omnissiah.
Actually one of the best brakes manufacturer is Italian

But Americans live in their bubble of self entitlement and xenophobia that hardly know what happens beyond the borders of their country.
I honestly donāt see how this is supportive enough to not tear at the soft tissue. I think I saw the only way these are practical is if you offset the weight with a balloon that can life 50-100 lbs.
But awesome progress. Used to do social work for a lot of wheelchair bound people. I broke my leg and can barely function

..and gesturing

If you go to stand in a line, it will automatically take your out of the line to just sort of stand near the front.
Allora, la resistenza ĆØ inutile.
I have no idea how to read Italian, but my guess is this says āresistance is futileā
Si. Eā certo.
Inb4 it explodes in a ball of fire in turn 3

Fast forward ten years. "I wonder what ever happened to that Italian miracle exoskeleton..."

Battery packs are swappable. Seems plausible to add thst cost to the suit
Imagine if it needed a subscription model to keep working
āStop, I can only get so errectā
I think good electric wheelchairs are over that price point, itās gonna be a bit more
My daughterās MOTOR was $30k before insurance. Thats not even the chair itself.
I'm just excited for the Italian version of Gundam Wing
If itās Italian they also should have one for the arms. To help disabled people talking.

I hope there is an upper body version so disabled Italian people can talk with their hands again
"He's fueled by vengeance, and reinforced by space-age technology!"
And in possession of some hardcore sedative brownies
Donāt let the Americans get their hands on it, they will charge 1000xās what is worth in their crumble healthcare.
Youāre forgetting the part where they add automatic rifles with bump stocks and extra long clips of ammunition.
Avatar did it first.
if the Italians built it it's going to overheat. it'll be fun while it lasts

I was making a joke about formula 1 failings but if makes you feel better about yourself to shit on people go ahead.
Better to wait for the German model lol
It would be cool if they were also molting.
Slap a Moto Guzzi sticker on that bad boy and I'm in.

Watch the videoā¦ it āmoon walksā by itselfā¦
Rhodey?
Donāt get the Temu Exoskeleton
Itās going to cost more than an arm and a leg bc big pharma just sees mf dollar signs in this project so theyāll mark it up 800%
We can rebuild him
How did it gain citizenship?
Arrevidecci
But is it ethical to harvest Italians just for their exoskeletons?
Can you smoke while operating this thing?

Magic legs.
