Conceptual Designs

Displayed here is a concept of what the basic components of a powered exoskeleton could look like. Notice that the entire suit is attached to the outside of the wearer, running along the limbs and connecting at major joints such as elbows, shoulders, knees, and hips. This type of design allows the suit to pick up on the wearer's natural movements and then assist them.

Although this sketch shows only the skeletal elements of the exoskeleton, it would be a simple task to attach protective materials for firemen or similar professions.
