This Exoskeleton Will Make Firemen Unstoppable

The exoskeleton gives firefighters increased strength. The suit is designed to help with the huge amount of equipment firefighters need to carry. It allows firefighters to easily climbs dozens of flights of stairs without exhausting themselves. Researchers say the kit could be adapted for different missions and types of firefighter.


How it works:


Joystick controls allow the firefighter to control the system, while a computer mounted on the back sends commands to the arms and legs. The device transfers its weight and oad directly to the ground, so firefighters dont bear the weight.


When not in use, the suits are relatively small are can be kept in a fire truck.
