"Researchers at the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology have
developed an exoskeleton for farmers. The idea is to assist the aging
Japanese farmers in their daily routine by giving them greater strength
to complete their work, much of which is manual labor."

Cool! Nice to see this was made for farmers FIRST, rather than for military

Cheers,
