An exoskeleton is a rigid external covering that supports and protects the bodies of certain animals, particularly invertebrates like arthropods and molluscs. This structure, made of materials such as chitin or calcium carbonate, serves multiple functions including defences against predators, structural support, and facilitating movement. In the context of human technology, powered exoskeletons are wearable devices designed to enhance the user’s strength and endurance. These suits, equipped with electric motors, hydraulics, or pneumatics, assist in lifting heavy objects and provide support to reduce strain on the body. They are particularly beneficial in medical rehabilitation, helping patients regain mobility, and in industrial settings, where they can prevent injuries from repetitive tasks. The development of exoskeleton technology continues to advance, with innovations aimed at improving their efficiency, comfort, and affordability. Despite the challenges, such as high costs and the need for precise control systems, the potential benefits of exoskeletons in enhancing human capabilities and improving quality of life are significant. As research progresses, exoskeletons are expected to become more integrated into various aspects of daily life, from healthcare to manufacturing.
