Researchers from the University of Michigan have determined that the FORTIS K-SRD exoskeleton, designed by Loосkheed Martin, can significantly reduce the fatigue of the military. The device, attached to the soldiers' feet, reduces the load and increases endurance.Researches was funded by an independent organization, so scientists talk about the objectivity of their research. They say that they tested the devices on a treadmill, the angle of which varied periodically to 15 degrees. Subjects were loaded with backpacks weighing 20 kg, and during the tests the speed of the treadmill was changed. At the same time, all life indicators were read out and it was determined how much energy was spent by the experimental subjects to perform the tasks.
