Sometimes they look strange, sometimes cool. IEEE Spectrum presents exoskeletons around the world. Wearable robotic systems in Asia, Europe, and the United States.
Sometimes they help us when we lost some skills. Sometimes they expand our abilities. Just click trough that gallery and build your own mind.

The very first commercially available exoskeleton, scheduled to hit the market in Japan next month, is designed to help elderly and disabled people walk, climb stairs, and carry things around. Built by Cyberdyne Inc., in Tsukuba, Japan, this exoskeleton, called HAL-5, will cost about 1.5 million yen (around US $13 800).
