Check this out: We've been hearing about the new robotic exo-skeletons for ages; I remember watching Ellen Ripley use a bright orange one to load cargo onto the Marine's Transport ship in the movie aliens. It was all science fiction then, but now it's time for the real thing.
In November Cyberdyne researchers in Tsukuba, Japan, will be releasing the first commercially available robotic exo-skeleton for use by the elderly and people with special needs. U.S. Researchers have a similar design in mind, but it's for DARPA use only, at this point.
Cyberdyne...Cyberdyne...That name rings a bell....Wait a sec'! That's the people who built the Terminator right? In the movie anyway...Wow, talk about life imitating art, imitating life...
What's next, Skynet?
