Rejoice, commuters and workers! The Chairless Chair exoskeleton lets you sit down anywhere, anytime
2014-08-21 16:22:57| Extremetech
The Chairless Chair is an exoskeleton that attaches to your legs and lets you sit back, as if you're sitting on a chair -- but, in the words of Morpheus, there is no chair. Rather than relying on the tensile strength of solid wood or plastic and the gravity-defying nature of three or more supporting legs, the Chairless Chair uses clever battery-powered mechanics to achieve the same effect. When turned off, the Chairless Chair allows you to walk around normally. There are many uses, from production line work, to sitting on a crowded train.
