imagine just hopping on a bike and suddenly it's an ebike lol how fast can I climb a tree and can i outrun a bear - useful things EDIT: Also needs a swim mode so i can swim really fast and for longer distances - imagine scuba diving with extra speed and distance

[@bmac9936]

Very good starting point. Interface needs a bit of simplification so resistance mode can recharge the battery. Reasonable initial price if good durability.

[@adventureswithgrunt]

So many benefits for an injured runner or hiker. Rehab or just extending the time one can be out in nature. Terrific product and a glimpse into the future. Thanks Stephen 👍

[@lolmanbob123]

$500 for this kind of equipment seems absolutely incredible. Definitely seems like it'd be practical for all kinds of application from rehab to recreation and beyond.

I'm slowly working on all the features of my super suit. Got a Meta Quest 3 for UI, oxygen concentrator for high altitude and/or athletic boost, ultrasonic sensors and 360 camera with haptic feedback belt for Spidey sense, got AI running locally on my PC for the brains, etc. I'm halfway to iron Man with only off the shelf parts.

[@ninjanerdstudent6937]

Well said. The Kickstarter backers get it for $500. Late comers will have to pay $1000. I still think it is fairly priced for what it can do. My primary modes of transportation are walking, driving, and light rail. If I can walk double the distance in a single day on my urban hikes, it will be worth it. I usually power walk 10 miles in a single day at 4.5 mph speed, but I would love to travel 20 miles at something like 5.5 mph speed in a single day.

I let myself get too sick from some parasite and now I have severe muscular dystrophy and struggle to walk more than a few meters at a time. It's going to take a while to build my muscle back up and something like this would be perfect for assisting me until then if I lived in part of the world where I could get it shipped to me. But I could see a great use case for people who have been hospitalized or bedridden for long periods, possibly in a coma, who have lost most of their muscle mass and need help getting around while they rebuild their natural muscle.

[@markboyes6309]

Two questions : Does resistance mode help descending slopes - I.e control your descent? Could you cycle in them?

[@moirhapsody]

that comes to my mind too, will this dampers the downhill strides in some form?? if it does it will save a lot of knees.

[@andres.acosta]

according to their kickstarter responses, yes the resistance mode does indeed help for descending slopes and they also said it should help with cycling or any movements where your thighs are moving back n forth

[@Ephemeral_Ghost]

@@moirhapsodyI think this only helps the hip joint. It would have to be strapped below the joint to take any stress off it, right? Maybe it takes pressure off the knee cap (underneath) but not where the upper and lower leg bones meet; for those with degraded cartilage.

[@jeffand2000]

Rowing?

[@moirhapsody]

⁠​⁠@@Ephemeral_GhostI actually find a way walking downhill that great reduces the pressure on my knee.(I have tear meniscus)i actually walk like those people who shoots gun, which bend their knee slightly and keep their upper body as stable as possible, and I will take a shorter stride. Basically just like by keeping my upper body stable(without actually bouncing up and down) I don’t feel the pain I usually had after 6km of walking downhill, I can extend it to 10+ km still no problem. But it comes with a draw back which is quite tiring for the thighs and core muscles. It works for me, can’t speak for any other ppl with different kind of knee issues.

“weighs less than 2 one liter bottles of water” lol so two kilos 😂

[@MichaelHughes124]

Resistance mode sounds amazing for sprinters!

[@damonhtoo]

Is there an automatic mode that varies assistance and resistance based on inclines? Like an automatic gear shift. If not there should be. Also, you could reverse engineer the app and use their API to control it. I'd use this with a VR/MR app to toggle resistance on when walking through liquid and toggle it off when walking out of it. It's rare that we get kinesthetic haptics in a relatively affordable consumer device. Edit: something else I just thought of, people that have trouble getting out of chairs like my aunt that uses a motorized chair can probably use this or something like it soon to help get up. Motorized chairs are a couple grand and can't be taken with you everywhere.

[@Tims_Gym]

Really enjoyed this. Reckon I’ll give one a try. How was it during descending?

[@StephenJReid]

had no issues descending. The resistance mode eases the descent slightly, not that noticeable if it makes a difference

[@dankdizzl3546]

I only have one lung due to being stabbed when I was was 22. At 42 I'm pretty active and love to hike. There are a lot of lakes in the surrounding mountains that I'd love to hike to, but am just unable due to many long sections of incline. And for $1k, that's pretty reasonable given how new this stuff is to the market. I'd definitely buy one if I could afford it.

[@StephenJReid]

I think it actually partly has a knock on benefit as everything is connected. That was my perception anyway. Didn’t notice anything that felt different. Although if your calf muscles aren’t strong enough for what you’re doing, you’ll slow down anyway. The key is to match the assistance level to what you’re doing

The other area of people who this might help are people who spend all day on their feet, pharmacists, nurses, working on construction, working on an assembly line where you spend a lot of time on your feet, waitress/waiter, cook, worker at car wash, hair cutter/dresser, walking mailman and there are many more physical jobs where this may help. A modified version of this would likely help workers who spend all their time on their feet, what they really need is not walking aid but assistance in "sitting" while standing to get the weight off their feet since they stand all day. If a modified version were created where they could rest while standing, a thousand dollars wouldn't be much if it took away the stress of standing on their feet all day. The idea would be to rest while standing and immediate walking assistance if they need to move around from point A to point B.

[@MichaelLLewis]

As an aging runner, hiker, and backpacker my biggest joint problem is in the knees. I suspect that a device like this is only going to decrease my knee longevity. It feels like this would be helpful to those experiencing hip fatigue, but I wouldn't advise if you have or expect knee problems.

[@StephenJReid]

My guess is that a knee version will follow or something that connects together. It makes sense. I know I personally would get more knee pain that hip pain. but it makes sense to start with hips as that's a natural anchor point for the legs.

[@megatherium99]

Five seconds faster with the exoskeleton AND it was your third overall attempt too! That's impressive... The applications for such a device - especially as the technology improves are far and wide - from the military, to police foot pursuits (and the criminals!), physical rehab, resistance training, and on and on! Where's the American counterpart?

[@d.Cog420]

Needs a gps so it can take you to the offie when you can't walk 🥴 Serious question though, what's the battery life like? Recharge time? The battery looks like it's independent so could you buy them separately to swap out on the go? Can they make a super powerful one and call it the Steve Austin?

[@briandoolittle3422]

I don't see the use for me in the summer, when I'm typically doing 10+ mile days backpacking, or 20+ mile days for dayhiking. I think the battery would run out way to early and just be additional weight. BUT, I could see it being extremely helpful in winter, when I'm going shorter distances and I'm carrying more weight because deep snow is challenging and winter requires more gear.

[@JasonLee-cc6bi]

I have a couple of questions Stephen, how would you feel they would work on a more twisty track, they looked great when you were on a straight track, but a lot of hikes may involve sharp switchbacks, stepping over tree roots, rocks etc - how do you think they would cope with a more 'twisting' walking motion? Also that cutoff point when raising your leg on steep climbs? How restrictive do you think that is, any idea about a climb steepness limit? Otherwise they look fantastic, I struggle uphills and feel they would be a great benefit to me 🙂

I was hoping it would come with a built in speaker to play the Six Million Dollar Man jumping sound effect when ever you jumped! I want to put one under clothing and see the looks on peoples faces when I run as fast as I can! What's the range of motion for sideways motion of your legs? This could be great for all sorts of training, like resistance for jumping, or for martial arts kicks. Would these work in combination with an e-bike?! Have to admit, $1000 was far less than I thought you were going to say. I was expecting more like $2-3k for such a new technology.

[@StephenJReid]

Haha, sailing past people. It won't make you run ridiculously fast as I think that would probably be bad for your joints 🤣 But definitely gives you quite the boost. It has a side hinge so I didn't really feel it restricted my range of motion at all. Yeah can be use on a bike although not specifically designed with that in mind.

[@DnsysTech]

The Dnsys X1 can currently use its motors to play music. We have prepared a demo which you can view on our homepage(LAB TESTING & DEMO).

Resistance mode would be great for walking down the hills and mountains.

Maybe I missed it but would resistance mode also lighten strain on your muscles during descend?
