The lightweight aluminium exoskeleton, called XOS, senses Rex’s every move and instantly moves with him; it is almost like a shadow or a second skin. It is designed for agility that can match a human’s, but with strength and endurance that far outweigh our abilities.

    Ah the earthlings are working on TK Tech, well ok, we could use endo skeletons to compensate aging deficits and dissablities, i imagine also to reverse the system creating a oppositional force to body instead of supporting it in order to train muscles and repair orthopedic diferences. Elliminating the age gap is priority number 1, if we are all the same we must also be able to interact with others and the enviroment the same, otherwise the division just keeps getting greater. Tricking the human perception into believeing we are one. This is a great peace of the puzzle.
