Interesting - although if this is out in the five years this contract is
supposed to run, I'll be very, very surprised. Was anyone else reminded
of
"...faster than a speeding locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a
single bound..." Superman stuff in some of the comments made? :>

The DARPA powered armour/exoskeleton proposals are exotic, but nowhere
near as wild as this article's tech!

Cool stuff for PSB for our PA in games, though!
