Titan Arm makes user stronger as ‘superhero’ exoskeleton emerges as useful technology

You will need to see if this could be helpful to your recovery. Unless you push this stuff to your stroke hospital it will take decades to get there and your children when they have a stroke will not have anything better than you have had.

In this Friday, Dec. 6, 2013 photo, Nick McGill wears the Titan Arm as he poses at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. The robotic device invented by four University of Pennsylvania engineering students can help its wearer carry an additional 40 pounds. The prize-winning prototype builds on existing research in the field of exoskeletons, an area that experts say will grow as the population ages. Students say some current exoskeleton models can cost $100,000. They created the award-winning Titan Arm for less than $2,000.
