In Japan, they developed an exoskeleton that allows boxing fights of cyborgs
A Japanese exoskeleton maker called Skeletonics has created a suit that turns its wearer into a fighting exoskeleton, ready for the boxing ring of the future.
The video shows a man in a suit throw some punches with two massive mechanic arms - and the agility with which he's moving the whole rig is seriously impressive.
It's all about mimicking the wearer's exact moves without having to translate movement using complex electronics, Skeletonics says.
The Skeletonics system uses a link mechanism, not an electrical system, to synchronize human movements with those of the robot exoskeleton. Skeletonics' boxing suit will actually be able to withstand actual mecha fist-to-mecha fist combat, however, remains to be seen.
