And of course bigger or higher rpm motors, I'm assuming it's top speed is limited by how much extra horsepower it needs to balance while already spinning at high revs? Cool rig though, thats the kind of stuff I like to see. That's thinking with your dipstick, Jimmy!

    Could you please build an invention of mine? Simple Tension Exoskeleton.
    Part I:
    1. A cable or strap.
    2. At one end of the strap (or cable) is a loop used like a horse riding stirrup and you put your shoe in it.
    3. The strap runs along the front of your leg and over the knee.
    4. You wear a bicycle knee protector and the band/cable goes over that (and maybe through a guide that keeps it in place in front of your knee.
    5. The strap reaches to your waist where it is tied to the bottom of a belt and shoulder harness.
    6. When bending your knee the band gets pulled and you can hold it tight and in place by some sort of handbag strap lock. If it's a cable and not a strap, use a bicycle's hand brakes.
    You can now sit down without a chair and stay indefinitely without exerting yourself.
    You can hold a large refrigerator on your back without using your muscles.
    Part II: The strap is pulled in and then released by an electric motor.
    When pulled in it causes a kicking motion.
    You can climb mountains, or pedal your bike, or go up steps of a building, or do any of those with a refrigerator on your back.
    Part III: A long strap goes from your waist back to the other leg.
    Now the motor is working on both legs. When one side is "pulling" and kicking, the other side is releasing and letting your leg bend.
    When your done, simply strap it off. No need for electric bikes anymore.

      The Teensy 3.6 is a 32 bit version of the Arduino. Most Arduino programs written for the 8 bit Arduino Uno will work just fine on any of the 32 bit versions if you change some pin numbers, use the correct voltage, and lower the output current as needed.
      An Arduino Uno can push 20 mA through any pin for years at a time and the voltage drop will always be less than 0.5 volts. Most of the 32 bit Arduinos can't do that. The voltage drop will be far worse, and the pin may burn out in a matter of minutes at that high a current.
      In almost all other respects, the 32 bit processors can do more stuff much faster.

    Any thoughts about making this available for others to build? Either as kits to buy or open sourcing it. This amazing and the world needs more of these!
