The Ergonomic Saw is like Go-Go Gadget Arm for handymen. Without the experience and the strength that are generally required to adequately operate one of these dangerous devices, the user is here prevented from becoming a wild blade wielder with the risk of causing physical harm.
Viktor Rosendahl's concept incorporates a backpack and an arm-like brace around the waist. The user carries the machine's battery within the harness, so to lighten the load from his shoulders down to his wrists. With so many securing straps, the jointed handles of the contraption are easy to shift in any direction, making movement the easiest part of the job at hand. It's a versatile landscaping apparatus that is constantly collecting data about its own efficiency.
