Honda's robot legs

Published: 11 November 2008 y., Tuesday

Honda's experimental robotic legs are set to revolutionise life on the factory floor.

 

Walking Assist is designed to lighten the burden of workers who spend prolonged periods on their feet or in similarly uncomfortable positions.

 

The gadget works by redistributing body weight along its frame, reducing stress on the knees.
