The Lifesuit is being built so that paralyzed people can walk again. Sadly, there's not much info. on their website yet.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/http://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/Pretty cool ish.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/http://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/Dec 19th 2005 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/http://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/ I wanna see 7' 300lb. boxers wear a hi output version of these and REALLY smack each other around...

BIONIC-BOXING : Muscle vs. Metal

Even if it is marginally imoral, it would sell...

I wonder if the added strength these units provide the disabled can really offset the extra weight of the battery that the user has to wear. Not to mention that the ceter of gravity will be significantly altered...]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/http://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/
1) The guy wearing the suit actually looks like he is in pain trying to use the thing

2) The guy is very very very slow - like stationary please shoot me now slow

3) The things make enough noise that they are entirely impractical on the battlefield as people will know you're coming for miles and miles away! It sounds like someone with a riding lawnmower stuck in a ditch.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/http://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/Dec 19th 2005 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/http://www.engadget.com/2005/04/08/hal-bionic-suit-going-to-market/
Allow me to introduce myself. I have now been in civil and public life for over four decades, having arisen from a very humble background. I have been a Member of Parliament for almost two decades now, and also served as the first Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh State in India.

In April 2004, I suffered C6-C7 spinal injuries in a road accident, for which I was duly operated. Subsequently, I have been undergoing rigorous rehabilitation at various places including the Indian Spinal Injury Centre, New Delhi and at the Stokes-Mandeville (Royal Buck) Hospital, Aylesbury, U.K.

While there has been considerable improvement in my general medical condition, the process has been slow. It is now over a year since my accident, but I am still unable to walk.

It is therefore, with a great sense of urgency and hope that I am writing In the forum so that I can be connected to the right person for bionic suite. I shall be grateful if you guide me or proved address of the doctor/hospital/ lab where I can get the bionic suite.

Needless to say, the Government of India have, through the Hon’ble Prime
Minister, promised to bear all costs. I shall be happy to supply you with
any information pertaining to my medical history etc. that you may
desire.

I shall look forward to an early response.

With best wishes and kindest regards,

Yours sincerely
