I just saw this over in one of the ALS forums that i visit regularly as its the latest advanced Exoskeleton device for those paralysed from spinal cord damage, neurological diseases etc. (myself since 1996 from CIDP). When i first saw these about five years ago they were very bulky with a large power pack mounted to the user's back and now they're shrinking in size and becoming very futuristic.
