The 75 Million Dollar Man

Stephen writes "Do you folks remember that show "The 6 Million Dollar Man?" Well, it looks like some folks from the Pentagon do. Here's a clip from a new article we've just whipped up on this bionic subject: "The exoskeleton of the future will look something like a body suit and function to assist/improve all natural muscle movements. This could theoretically allow people to, excuse the cliché, leap tall buildings in a single bound, or be faster than a speeding bullet etc. The 'exoskeleton' will be designed primarily for military use but the applications for prosthetics or assistive technologies are endless."
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
