The exosuit for the elderly or therapy patients seems really neat.
Nope, for everyone!!!
TheAnvilMan or for soldiers
@@The_Revolutionist I agree for everyone, if they sell well they will cost less to produce therefore will cost less for disabled people to gain access to.
I have Spinal Cord Injury and that exoskeleton could really have a positive impact on my life. I wonder if that's just for show or going to the market.
It's more of a Exo-pants. Exo-suits is worn all over the body, up to the shoulders.
They might not want to give consumers access to a industrial quality one, or they'll rig it with body armor and use it like a militia.
I think you can buy it in japan. Its been there for ages. Not sure but if you need it. Go research Japan one.
It’ll more than likely be on other marks, just not the US market like always.
This is a good product for people with knee injury.
So...Samsung did some weird stuff this year but this seems neat
walking isn't fun... yea ok I guess if you're 350+ pounds it ceases to be fun but if you're a normal weight then it's perfectly enjoyable.
Ha, wrong!
Define "normal weight".
Maybe you should say "healthy weight"?
@@themedleb it's the same thing
Lmaoo
@@themedleb not American
This will have great application in industries where people suffer from repetitive stress injury. Augmenting production line workers with exoskeletons will reduce injuries on the job.
They could also invest in robots to replace the workers, that's always a viability.
dra6o0n And eventually the robots will replace humanity
Most heavy jobs on factory floors are already done by robotic arms. The trend will be more robotic arms, not paying labour + exoskeleton costs.
FIAT have used robotic factories for several decades. Tesla are doing pretty much the same thing in their production areas. Some major goods distribution companies use robots for almost everything except the deliveries. And Amazon are working hard on robotising that aspect of their business.
the hip-focused exosuit seems like a great idea, especially if it can help people with lower back pain. That may help cut down on the opioid epidemic through tech.
Still I can't run away from my problems
Debkanchan Samadder good one ☝️😂 🏃
My dad fell over the holidays and factured the C4 vertebra in his neck, bruising the spinal cord. He was instantly quadriplegic, couldn't feel his body. He was treated terribly at the hospital. They just didn't know how to deal with his situation, but he got much better care at the physical therapy place that he went to once he was stabilized. Medicaid wouldn't pay for him to be there for any longer than a month, and he had to move to a nursing home for continuing PT, if by a lesser standard. As his spinal cord has healed, he's gotten back probably 50-60% of his mobility, mostly in his body and legs, and some in his arms. He has very little fine motor control, so he can't balance on his own. But he can stand and even walk with help when he's got the strength for it.
My point is, this sort of thing, I think, would be a huge help for him in keeping up his strength and not wasting away. His situation is one that would benefit greatly from this technology, but sadly, he's likely the last person to ever see it.
If I knew who to contact at Samsung to see if they would put him in some of this, I would. Anyone got some contact information for Samsung's robotics division? lol
will need to be in XXXXXL size for Americans
Hilarious
Disney could offer these as rentals at the park entrance and make a killing off all the hamplanets.
ha.
It will need terminator level strength to lift them xD
There's a statistic which is sobering: One in three Americans weighs as much as the other two put together.
I think they have drastically underestimated the market, example; I have 0 mobility problems, I go up stairs by skipping 3 to 4 steps at a time, I WANT ONE. I also think that if they were to sell them commercially they could use some of the profits to offset price reductions for the disabled. Bringing production up to where exoskeletal suits are readily available comes with its own cost reductions for manufacturing in bulk, and the more your product is out there the more likely people are to know about it and what it can do for them so getting as many disabled people in these as possible would be the ultimate commercial.
Who doesn't want one? something that boosts your natural abilities will always be wanted by the majority of people despite what they say.
To anyone who disagrees with me, feel free to chuck away your phones, your computers, and your consoles, because obviously you don't like being able to offload trivial information out of your brain and into your devices.
Walking is actually fun. I go in a walk in nature with my gf for about an hour every day and it is genuinely one of my favourite things.
Those kind of suits might be good for repetitive heavy lifting motions on factory lines. Unless a robotic arm is cheaper than a human + exoskeleton...
Seoul airport have a bunch of those already
A rolling air purifier and techno lederhosen? What does Samsung create next? A talking fridge...? Oh wait 😅
That exo suit is awesome. I'd put it on resistance mode for half the day for exercise and then power mode for the rest of the day to feel like a super hero :P
Put it on regen mode and use the energy to recharge the battery.
2 words. *LETHAL BACKSHOTS*
Sean H we’re gonna see some new pron categories soon.
LOL.
yeet finally
I need that exosuit badly.
For anyone complaining how exoskeletons will ''make humans fatter'', or will ''make humans lazier'', let me ask you a question: how often do you use your phones? i don't care what you use it for, but just tell me how often.
That exo is awesome for elder people....go for it samsung....
Oops...the military 😑
You said bot air wasn't interesting. In Korea where microdust and weather conditions are a serious problem, Korean companies such as Samsung would put a lot of effort developing good air purifiers as it is quite necessary to many Koreans.
So can I sprint faster with this?
no. The exosuit provides way too little extra power to gain any significant speed boosts while running
Well actually, the two things we were promised for the future were flying cars and jetpacks, TYVM.
Robots, monorails and moon bases were kind of next tier.
Exosuits? Sorry, I never heard of that being promised, despite the popularity of Iron-Man. Now, bionics had a huge boost by THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN in the 70s and EMPIRE STRIKES BACK in the 80s--but the whole "having to cut off a limb" prerequisite took a lot of the shine off of them. ;-)
the people who have cochlear implants and pace makers would disagree with your notion that cybernetics isn't wanted/promised
Seems like just an interesting novelty now, but you’ll be most grateful when you’re 75 to have those exosuits available.
We need a robot that does the job of "Bot Care" and "Bot Air" combined + house cleaning.
Walkin isn't fun... *insert First world problem meme*
Build Robots that can actually go over real world terrain. These bots look like they glide on glass floors only. What about carpet & stairs?
Look up Boston Dynamics' Atlas robot.
You're welcome
Jack Reacher I already know about the Atlas. They’re not for consumers 😕
Humanoid already exist and they can jump quite high and climb high block
My elderly farmer neighbour caught a infection that his doctor misdiagnosed and ended up losing the left leg below the knee, and the right kneecap is buggered up, so he needs to have a exo leg added and the other would have to be a replacement. Prices should be affordable, yet its a 30k+ cashgrab based on what I've seen with the technology. We are talking about affordable components, so the cost doesnt justify charging so much that the people who really need it will never afford it. Something to think about if you in development of such marketable products. Life only happens once you know?
Save the exoskeleton for rehab only. Everyone else should be using their muscular system no conserving it. The last thing we need is to accelerate a Wall-E society.
You can't stop progress my friend, cybernetics is the tier after exoskeletons
*Where are the thrusters?*
I have a back problem and my legs give way could this help me please reply
Up next, how Samsung is turning humans to robots
assistive exoskeletons will just weaken the user if used consistently. advantage will be lost in a matter of weeks, unless it is 5x factor and up.
The advantage will not be lost, you simply offload your mechanical propulsion to the exoskeleton, just like you offload information from your brain to your electronics
I need that exosuit
Exo suit for fire 🔥 fighters using starlite.
I need an exosuit, I'm tired of my weak body 😑
You will get even weaker... Imagine the battery dies, you couldn't even move anymore because you get used to not using your own muscles :P
You should replace your weak human meat suit for a superior robot one.
@@i.i.iiii.i.i that would be a good point if it was any more of a problem than your legs giving out, which it isn't
also, there's zero functional difference between wearing an exosuit for getting around than there is getting better leg muscles (other than the material creating the propulsion of course)
@@thelelanatorlol3978
weak leg muscles -> exosuit -> even weaker leg muscles
Wallace did it first
and look what happened with his trousers!
Talk for yourself, I find walking fun.
If you're four times his age, it's sometimes extremely painful.
They should used hydraulics like for atlas.
I think my dad could use this.
Did he say boost in speed upto 19 percent or 90 percent?
19%.
Nothing more fun than walking around. wth
Jet packs?
Everything in wall-e was right, WE ARE GETTING FAT!
@1:58 "walking isn't fun"... lmao. is this really where we are headed? wall-e lazy humans everywhere, smh. no thanks!
pro tip. DOnt use an exosuit if your healthy or fat. only for the disabled or people that for some god forsaken reason your running up and down stairs for 8 hours daily.
Pro tip: Use an exoskeleton because it's fucking awesome
Dear Super Obesity, we can't wait to see you in the near future.
When you fall from the stairs like a stiff robot
Or you get halfway up the stairs and
a) the battery dies
b) it crashes
c) RFI makes it turn around and go back down again.
Working on It? We sell them now for 24 karat gold and real diamonds. Sad shit
Please could you reply
Beat that apple!
We’re programming robots how to walk.
Looks awesome for people with a disability, medical issue like you just had knee surgery, and old people. If I see anyone who uses this because they say it makes walking easier I'll officially lose faith in humanity
Let’s agree on this. None bipedal no arms tall vacuum is not robot
That walking mechanism is extremely difficult and unnecessary
Majin Gamer unnecessary? how is my $60k robot handles my macMansion stairs?
Robot yes, Android no.
Bjarke Carlsen your definition of the word robot is wrong then
Majin Gamer, Yeah, unnecessary until it meets its nemesis, a flight of stairs.
Trash can turn on the TV......ohh kkkk
How can engadget only have 700 views in an hour with almost 700k subs.
Russian bots?
they post tons of videos especially from CES. most subscribers dont get around to seeing every single vid
@@minolee5995 That's not how sub feeds work.
I'm subbed to a lot of people that post a lot of videos. If I don't find the title of the video interesting enough, I don't click. Very simple. I've been skipping a lot of the engadget videos because the technology they feature doesn't seem interesting to me.
@@MuhammadAfifSiduppa massive sub count with extremely low view and comment activity is a clear sign of sub bot usage.
It's common sense, but whatever.
@@3snowyman I don't care about your subjective opinion. I'm looking at the whole.
walking isn't fun
Sex bot
What a weak exo.
CES 2019 is absolutely boring.
I need that exosuit
