I Want: A Cyberdyne exoskeleton

Posted by Douglas Charles on April 16th, 2009 at 3:00 pm

For a mere $4,200 you too can own your very own “Hybrid Assistive Limb” exoskeleton from Cyberdyne. Sounds like I just made that crap up, doesn’t it? But it’s true. This is going to be the perfect thing for the ultimate lazy people like me. Now I won’t even have to use any muscle to lift that beer to my lips. I can be the king of sloth! Totally what this thing was designed for I am sure…

The company intends the suit less for personal interest and more for “rehabilitation support and physical training support in medical field, ADL support for disabled people, heavy labour support at factories, and rescue support at disaster sites, as well as in the entertainment field.”

Pfft… for rehabilitation… yeah, whatever. I just want it so I can walk in to my boss’s office someday with this badass suit on, my cyborg eyeball installed and lit up, while also wearing my cyborg fists and scare the living piss out of him.
