(Insert obligatory Tony Stark reference here.)īut when major companies like Ford, Siemens, and Lowe’s start to take interest in exosuits, it raises the question as to whether they’re becoming less of a concept and more of a reality. And exosuits have certainly lived a life of their own in pop culture and science fiction. In Japan, companies like Panasonic, Honda, and Cyberdyne have marketed exoskeletons as a way to help ease the burdens of a shrinking and aging population. From holographic memories to drone detection tech to advanced exoskeletons, Next Level will show you the tech that has the potential to radically change the lens through which we see the world.Įxoskeletons are not new technology journals and research papers point to the development of exoskeleton’s back in the 1960s, mostly for military purposes. In th e second season of the Verge video series Next Level, senior editor Lauren Goode takes you behind the scenes to show you the technology that’s being worked on at some of the world’s most innovative companies and research institutions. There is tech for tech’s sake, and then there’s tech that alters or enhances the human experience.
