Future of Wearable Technology - Exoskeletons
There’s one particular device currently under testing called exoskeleton, which is a form of a technological wearable skeleton that can increase our human functions to new levels. If there’s any evidence that this invention is breaking barriers that separate us from our next evolution, James Gallagher provides it. The BBC News health and science correspondent wrote an article about a paralyzed man named Thibault, who successfully moved all of his body in a robotic suit that is controlled by mind feedback. Since 2017, these trials have been occuring thanks to Clinatec and University of Grenoble’s efforts in producing these remarkable breakthroughs in science. Thibault stated: “It was like [being the] first man on the Moon. I didn't walk for two years. I forgot what it is to stand, I forgot I was taller than a lot of people in the room..." . This resulted in an advancement in technology and science that will bring plenty of benefits to people who are currently disabled. Professor Benabid, major contributor to Parkinson’s disease brain stimulation (DBS) treatment, acknowledges this is a stepping stone to further enhancing disabled people’s lives : “ We have solved the problem and shown the principle is correct. This is proof we can extend the mobility of patients in an exoskeleton.”. The continuous hard work of the science community builds new avenues to explore unthinkable possibilities into reality.
