Consumer-Ready Exoskeletons

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Enhanced Robotics 'SPORTSMATE5' is for Fitness and Hiking

— November 11, 2021 — Lifestyle
The Enhanced Robotics 'SPORTSMATE5' robotic exoskeleton is a consumer-ready solution focused on enhancing the capabilities of avid athletes and outdoor explorers alike. The exoskeleton works, as its name suggests, by being positioned around the waist and onto the knees where it will utilize a series of motors to add in resistance when working out or hiking. This will help wearers to greatly enhance their athletic output and potentially strengthen various muscle groups in less time than it might traditionally take.

The Enhanced Robotics 'SPORTSMATE5' robotic exoskeleton is rated for three-hours of use per charge and can be used in both fitness mode as well as outdoor mode. The unit weighs just 2.5kg and makes use of an adaptive artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to adjust according to needs.
Trend Themes
1. Consumer Exoskeletons for Fitness and Outdoor Activities - The trend is towards consumer-ready robotic exoskeletons that enhance athletic performance for fitness and outdoor activities.
2. Adaptive AI Algorithms for User Customization - The trend is towards the use of adaptive AI algorithms that customize consumer exoskeletons to user needs for maximum effectiveness.
3. Lightweight Designs with Extended Battery Life - The trend is towards lighter-weight designs of consumer exoskeletons with extended battery life for greater convenience and portability.
Industry Implications
1. Fitness Equipment Manufacturing - The industry that produces traditional fitness equipment will need to adapt and incorporate robotic exoskeletons for consumers to stay competitive.
2. Outdoor Gear Manufacturing - The outdoor gear manufacturing industry will need to incorporate exoskeleton technology into their products to stay up to date with customer demand.
3. AI and Robotics Companies - AI and robotics companies working on consumer exoskeletons will have disruptive innovation opportunities in the sports and fitness industry.
