Hercule exoskeleton. Woman demonstrating the Hercule robotic exoskeleton at the 2012 Eurosatory international defence and security industry trade show, Paris, France. This device was manufactured by the French engineering company RB3D for the French military. It enhances the capabilities of the human body, allowing the wearer to carry heavy loads (80 to 100 kg) effortlessly. It has been designed not only for military purposes but also for other high-risk civilian and non-civilian roles such as firefighting. Photographed at the Paris-Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre, Paris, France, in 2012.
