I work in the trades. I've seen a lot of manufacturing robots and they look painfully slow. They do better overall because unlimited strength and 24/7 work. I would be interested to see a skilled trades person with an exoskeleton that could lift as much as need maybe into the 1 ton area of weight, yes I know it would be a huge machine, but I think a human could out perform a robot minute vs minute production, especially in places with more custom work where set up times would be a hindrance.
Don't worry fam, I am trying to make a company that specializes in custom manufacturing, I will use things similar to what you said. My end goal is research, after money starts to roll in, I'm doing this so I can invent stuff that I would need the funds to do (like a vtol)
Wish i had something like this when i was driving front end loaders in the mines. It was a comfortable spot in which i my arm would rest. I hardly had to move it to operate the bucket or arm. But it was the constant little movements for hours on end. that would leave me wincing in pain. It felt like someone was stabbing me in the shoulder every time i moved my hand to operate the bucket. When i was a labourer i use to wonder why the loader drivers seemed so happy whenever they had to get out and do some manual work. After my first two months in the loader i understood why
Introducing the new Ford Exo! This exosuit provides additional strength and power throughout the body. Use it for manual labor or in combat. This will go great with our Tacticals of the F-150, Ranger and Bronco but not the Mustang because you'll look like a G.I. Joe in a Barbie car. Vist your local dealership for more information!
I worked in a garage door factory for a year and anyone who's been there for more than five has had some kind of shoulder surgery. It's been three years since that job and my shoulder has just finished healing. The company I worked for tried to screw guys out of pension and paying for the different injuries. This is a really fantastic thing that Ford is doing
This is how mjolnir started. Exoskeleton suits that workers used to move heavy ass stuff around docks and warehouses.. in 145 years we'll have mjolnir mark 4 lol
Well this isn't for lifting heavy loads, its for comfort and resituating the load stress on the body. 145 years from now maybe we will have suits for that but odds are it will all be automated with very little human input. But you and i wont be alive to see it.

If you saw the clips of factory workers they displayed on this very video, all the strength related stuff was handled via machinery. They don't *need* more strength.
superhuman strength would require added force by the exoskeleton, which, if there was an error, could hurt the person wearing it. instead, all this does is distribute weight on your arms to your legs
Is there any research being done to find out if this just transfers the stress and wear to another part of the body? Sure it protects the shoulders but is that at the cost of the knees?
I wonder if lose of upper body strength would happen after prolonged use of it though. Since it seems you are not using the same muscles any more to do it. Mean for saving shoulders its great just wondering if there will be bad side effects after though.
Think of it like a garage door spring. It acts like a counterweight to lessen the load from gravity acting on your arms and whatever you're holding. If you were lying on your side or inverted this would not work properly. However this isn't an issue because it is intended to be used for specific tasks in a limited scope.

Powered exoskeleton suit's, for workers, at Ford or any large company, are just a stop gap until the capability of the robots, and power, match that of the human worker's ! . Then you will have factory's were you will see the raw materials going in "Automated Trucks delivered materials ", and finished products coming out at the other end "Automated trucks delivering the end product from factory to distribution " , No humans at the beginning of the production and no human at the end just Robots lots and lots of machines ! . And at the top of this machine pyramid , a few humans making millions or billions in rev-anew, with out a cost in production apart from maintenance, spear parts for the robots and electricity costs. All of this is going to happen in the next twenty five years or more, we could be looking at the last generation, to be involved in the traditional way of working to make a living ! .
Tang No Technology and the need for profit ! , Communism no that's a ideology that puts people first as a collective , over the needs of the few "the ruling Elite " capitalist, this will allow the few over the many to achieve protif at NO COST capitalism ! .
LOL, and who will found it then? None of these robots and exos are being researched, build and owned by arm-chair communists. If anything, this progress will reduce value of individual human being, since they no longer will have place in creation of valuable products.
These are not powered suits. They use springs to assist in lifting and the rigid frame transfers the weight to the hips. These are to reduce strain on the worker so the worker is less expensive over time. A robot still can not compete where these complicated tasks require a human, so you make the trained human last longer with less medical expense.
Barrie Wright robots already do at least half humans just maintain them but soon they won't need humans but to just make sure there doing the right stuff

Then you will have factory's were you will see the raw materials going in "Automated Trucks delivered materials ", and finished products coming out at the other end "Automated trucks delivering the end product from factory to distribution " , No humans at the beginning of the production and no human at the end just Robots lots and lots of machines ! . And at the top of this machine pyramid , a few humans making millions or billions in rev-anew, with out a cost in production apart from maintenance, spear parts for the robots and electricity costs. All of this is going to happen in the next twenty five years or more, we could be looking at the last generation, to be involved in the traditional way of working to make a living ! .
So, communsium?
Tang No Technology and the need for profit ! , Communism no that's a ideology that puts people first as a collective , over the needs of the few "the ruling Elite " capitalist, this will allow the few over the many to achieve protif at NO COST capitalism ! .
LOL, and who will found it then? None of these robots and exos are being researched, build and owned by arm-chair communists. If anything, this progress will reduce value of individual human being, since they no longer will have place in creation of valuable products.
These are not powered suits. They use springs to assist in lifting and the rigid frame transfers the weight to the hips. These are to reduce strain on the worker so the worker is less expensive over time. A robot still can not compete where these complicated tasks require a human, so you make the trained human last longer with less medical expense.
Barrie Wright robots already do at least half humans just maintain them but soon they won't need humans but to just make sure there doing the right stuff
I remember seeing these in a shop magazine when I worked at a factory in the recycling center. Rescued it and gave it a look. Pretty sick🤙 wonder where they're at now.
Ford: We have an ExoSkeleton.
Porsche: We have a SpaceShip
Tesla: is a Gundam Cool
2010s: "We just want to protect shoulders you know"
2050s: "We are proud to become a contractor for the US military ]"
Eh, I'm not impressed. We need powered exo suits that actually increase your strength!
This is for "increased" endurance
Why? Because the media is sooo convincing/persuasive?
@@MrLittlePredator schizophrenic paranoid.
Jimmy De'Souza sure, cheaper and stronger... for, like, 10 minutes tops...
but how about the spine and joints ?
The most shocking thing here is seeing cars being made in America
This is such a brilliant idea, wow
THE WORLD FEARS THE ZONE'S EXPANSION. JOIN DUTY AND SAVE THE INNOCENT.
I would like to know more.
CHEEKI BREEKI
@@SSD_Penumbra Deadly anomalies, dangerous mutants, anarchists and bandits... None of them will stop Duty on its triumphant march towards saving the planet!
Are they available for public purchase? I would definitely buy one for home use!!
this is the most depressing comment section ever made
Fo real all the stoopids not getting its just some springs hahaha
Oh boy just what i wanted to see. A mechanically powered exosuit. Would love to see one in RL.
Very useful for hospital workers. My wife is a nurse and she complains a lot about her back from lifting alot of weight.
HERE WE GO.
This is gonna be HUGE
Will this be good enough for daily heavy lifting works?
i assume it also helps steady your arms with keeping blood flow in the arms so their arms dont get tired so easily when they are above the workers head all day
I install appliances, and when your installing 8 full apartments with all appliances, the whole
Kitchen and laundry on the fourth floor and have to get everything up the stairs with a dolly into each apartment this would definitely come in handy.
God this would be amazing for my torn shoulder
I wonder if it is storing their movement patterns? If it does they may apply that to robot movements later.
will this work for fast repeated motions with right hand?
I do allot of heavy lifting, and assembling. I could use that....like ASAP. Where do I get one?
Get this man as a host more thanks
I work at TMMK and we are testing these out on certain lines too.
I wonder if they will come out with exo-suits that can help partially/ and or full paralyzed people to restore full motor function with minimal effort on the controllers end.
This company EKSO makes a pair of legs that can walk on their own, a fully paralyzed person can use them to walk again
