Well, how about augmented mobility?

23
00:00:47.470 --> 00:00:50.180
Robotic exoskeletons have captivated us for years.

24
00:00:50.180 --> 00:00:52.040
They're major tropes in Sci-Fi movies

like "Aliens", "Elysium", and "Avatar".

26
00:00:54.350 --> 00:00:56.600
But in real life, engineers have been working on them

27
00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:58.210

lasts up to eight hours, and is relatively affordable.

<v ->Firefighters.</v>

62
00:02:03.603 --> 00:02:06.010
Firefighters walk in with significant amounts of gear

63
00:02:06.010 --> 00:02:08.640
and it's unacceptable for them to find themselves impeded.

64
00:02:08.640 --> 00:02:10.520
If there's fires that aren't on ground floors

65
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:11.860
or multi-story buildings,

66
00:02:11.860 --> 00:02:13.950
they're not taking elevators up to those needs,

67
00:02:13.950 --> 00:02:16.800
they're carrying their gear and typically backup gear.

Some of our customers are sending an extra guy

69
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:21.630
for the sole goal of carrying all the gear

70
00:02:21.630 --> 00:02:24.070
'cause they know by the time they make it to the 20th floor,

<v ->What makes Roam's military leg brace unique</v>

83
00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:51.010
is that it uses pneumatic actuators

84
00:02:51.010 --> 00:02:52.890
instead of heavy motors and servos.

85
00:02:52.890 --> 00:02:54.410
That means it's using compressed air

86
00:02:54.410 --> 00:02:56.050
to augment your knee movements.

87
00:02:56.050 --> 00:02:59.460
And in theory, give you up to two times your own strength.

88
00:02:59.460 --> 00:03:02.160 line:15% 
<v ->Specifically, this is designed for military members</v>

89
00:03:02.160 --> 00:03:03.010 line:15% 
or first responders.

90
00:03:03.010 --> 00:03:06.010 line:15% 
So the size is probably pretty close to where you're at.

91
00:03:06.010 --> 00:03:08.700
<v ->Yeah, tech journalist/military first responder.</v>

92
00:03:08.700 --> 00:03:10.000
<v ->It's perfect, right?</v>
<v ->It's about the same.</v>

93
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.150
<v Collin>You have a brace on each leg</v>

94
00:03:12.150 --> 00:03:13.990
and then you have a power pack that powers both of them.

95
00:03:13.990 --> 00:03:16.560
So that comprises kind of the two main parts of the system.

96
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:18.520 line:15% 
This contains the compressor,

97
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:20.280 line:15% 
some of the brains and that work in conjunction

98
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:22.030 line:15% 
with the sensors on the units themselves,

99
00:03:22.030 --> 00:03:24.830
all controlled by the remote that's on your left shoulder.

100
00:03:24.830 --> 00:03:25.890
If you wanna go ahead and press and hold,

101

I couldn't help but notice that anytime I move

108
00:03:40.010 --> 00:03:42.430
there's a bit of a noise coming out of it.

109
00:03:42.430 --> 00:03:43.740
What is that we're hearing?

110
00:03:43.740 --> 00:03:45.180
<v ->Yeah, so what you're hearing right now</v>

111
00:03:45.180 --> 00:03:47.560
is the compressor itself charging up air

112
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:50.320
to supply to each of the braces themselves.

113
00:03:50.320 --> 00:03:53.020
Part of what you're also hearing is when you move,

114
00:03:53.020 --> 00:03:54.740
there's the filling portion

115
00:03:54.740 --> 00:03:55.960
for the actuator.
<v ->That's that rumble.</v>

116

<v ->And then as you come back up, you'll hear venting.</v>

117
00:03:58.490 --> 00:04:00.920
So some of that is both the brace sound

118
00:04:00.920 --> 00:04:02.480
and the power pack sound.

119
00:04:02.480 --> 00:04:04.500
It's something we're working towards reducing,

120

but that's what you're hearing.

So the Forge isn't built to assist with your running,

163
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:50.430
but it is built in such a way

164
00:05:50.430 --> 00:05:51.950
that it shouldn't impede your running.

165
00:05:51.950 --> 00:05:54.060
So when it's powered off, it's not getting in my way,

166
00:05:54.060 --> 00:05:55.610
but it's not assisting either.

167
00:05:55.610 --> 00:05:58.750
It's not designed to assist, but let's see what happens.

168

[compressor whirring]
That's never gonna get old.

[Brent chuckling]

170
00:06:04.640 --> 00:06:06.520
It's really huffing and puffing.

171
00:06:06.520 --> 00:06:08.120
Let's go up to six.

172
00:06:08.120 --> 00:06:09.340
All right.

173
00:06:09.340 --> 00:06:12.010
So I can feel there's some resistance

174
00:06:12.010 --> 00:06:14.460
and I can't tell if it's making it harder or easier.

175
00:06:14.460 --> 00:06:15.560
Again, I'm still feeling the weight.

176
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:17.350
I'm feeling the pressure in the back of my thighs

177
00:06:17.350 --> 00:06:18.820
and around my ankles,

178
00:06:18.820 --> 00:06:21.573
but my knees feel totally fine right now.

179
00:06:22.500 --> 00:06:24.080
So that's good.

180
00:06:24.080 --> 00:06:28.093
It's not helping, but if I turn it off again.

181
00:06:28.960 --> 00:06:30.120
Oh yeah.

182
00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:32.750
Oh yeah, let's go without, definitely better without.

183
00:06:32.750 --> 00:06:35.380
Yeah, so I tried at level one and at level three,

184
00:06:35.380 --> 00:06:36.950
it was definitely impeding a little bit.

185
00:06:36.950 --> 00:06:39.380
It's just kind of resisting against your knees

186
00:06:39.380 --> 00:06:41.090
in a way that doesn't help you.

187
00:06:41.090 --> 00:06:43.320
It took some of the impact off my knees, which was nice,

188
00:06:43.320 --> 00:06:44.790
but I was kind of having to fight against it.

189
00:06:44.790 --> 00:06:48.225
So if you gotta run with this thing, turn it off.

208
00:07:26.830 --> 00:07:28.360
It's worth noting that while we're just

209
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:29.550
testing the Forge today,

210
00:07:29.550 --> 00:07:31.760
which is designed for these types of high impacts,

211
00:07:31.760 --> 00:07:35.000
Roam has two other models, the Ascend and the Elevate.

212
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:37.510
The Ascend is designed mostly for people with knee issues,

213
00:07:37.510 --> 00:07:39.070
and it helps them with things like standing

214
00:07:39.070 --> 00:07:41.270
and sitting and going up and down stairs.

215
00:07:41.270 --> 00:07:42.750
The Elevate is made for skiers

216
00:07:42.750 --> 00:07:44.360
whose knees aren't what they used to be.

217
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:46.490
I actually got to test it in Big Sky, Montana

218
00:07:46.490 --> 00:07:47.610
a couple winters ago,

219
00:07:47.610 --> 00:07:49.610
and it did in fact help me power through turns

220
00:07:49.610 --> 00:07:51.330
with less strain on my knees.

221
00:07:51.330 --> 00:07:52.930
Though, the sounds of the air compressor

222
00:07:52.930 --> 00:07:55.845
in an otherwise tranquil place was pretty hard to ignore.

[compressor whirring]

224

So let's try a little less controlled testing.

Okay, fine, so it was not designed for dunking.

Let's try a few things that it was designed for.
