Columbia scientists built a prototype for a robotic exoskeleton torso suit that would allow wearers who suffer from curvature of the spine to move, all while the machine kept their spine in proper alignment. And an upcoming art installation turns a door into a psychedelic experience that must be seen. We also hoped you'd enjoy this DIY build of a Russian tank.
