New and innovative robot suit for moving people.


"In testing with human subjects, the researchers found that study participants used 24.3% less metabolic energy when walking in the robotic exoskeleton than without the exoskeleton. Participants used 13.1% less energy when running in the exoskeleton, and 15.4% less energy when climbing stairs.

New robot suits can decrease energy use very much. And this kind of system is a good help for free time and heavy work. The new robot suit base is in the Human Universal Load Carrier HULC by Lockheed Martin. But the new robot suits are more compact, lightweight, and easy to use. They can operate for a longer time. 

The biggest problem with HULC has been its 20-kilometer range. The solar-powered system can use changed batteries that the MULE system or camel can carry.

Advanced battery technology allows those systems to be lightweight. Users who use this system can use those robot suits to carry heavy loads. And walk a long time. Those robot suits are suitable for the same missions as older and less flexible robotic suits like HULC. The knowledge of the neural signals makes those robot suits more flexible than older versions. And they are more versatile than older models. 

Advanced computer technology makes it possible for systems. That they can drive more complicated code. It allows that system can operate more varsity than older systems. Those robot running suits make hiking and many other things more exciting. But the military and scientific operators can also use those suits. 

When developers connect that technology with space suits, which are made for spacewalks, that allows them to create systems that can be used to operate in highly radioactive areas. The space suit is suitable for those things, but their weight is enormous. But if the robot suit is combined with those heavy suits, that are designed to protect their users against micrometeorites and cosmic radiation.

Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources.

   Use virtual "perpetual motion machines"  and seawater as energy sources.  The Archimedean screw can offer almost endless energy sources.  "Robert Fludd's 1618 "water screw" perpetual motion machine from a 1660 wood engraving. It is widely credited as the first attempt to describe such a device." (Wikipedia/Perpetual motion) The term "virtual perpetual motion machine" means a machine. That pulls water to the upper tank using a capillary tube. Then that water will fall through the generator or turbine wheel. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a "perpetual motion machine", that is impossible because of laws of thermodynamics.  The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a " real perpetual motion machine", which is impossible because of the laws of thermodynamics.  The real perpetual motion machines don't use outside energy. And that's why they are not possible....

Will humans survive the sun's red giant stage?

"As the Sun matures into a Red Giant, the oceans will boil and Earth will become uninhabitable." (The Conversation, The sun won’t die for 5 billion years, so why do humans have only 1 billion years left on Earth?) Sooner or later, all stars use their hydrogen. And then they turn into red giants. Sun is a yellow G spectral class star that turns into a white dwarf. But before that, the sun will turn larger.  The sun turns red and that means. It starts to send more infrared radiation. This thing will turn Earth into a hellish temperature that vaporizes water from Earth.  It's possible. That Earth will also vaporize with Venus and Mercury. Some scientists say that we have only 1 billion years to move farther in the solar system. The habitable zone will go to the distance of Jupiter and Saturn, and maybe humans find a safe place in those distant moons.  It's possible that before Sun will grow too large humans make large groups of mirror satellites or large shields that sho...

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru...
