A company named SARCOS has spent 6 years developing an amazing robotic exoskeleton that can make a normal human being have super-human strength!

The company hopes to deploy robotic exoskeletons like this in the military. An exoskeleton like this would greatly aid in the rescue efforts of earthquakes and other natural disasters, allowing a normal human being to lift enormous objects with little effort.

What’s even cooler is that SARCOS is working on “hiding” the exoskeleton under an armored suit so that it looks more like you’re a Marine unit from StarCraft. I’ve posted a video of the StarCraft 2 trailer below so that you can see what I mean.
