A new technology for paraplegics is now. Test pilot Paul Thacker has been a paraplegic for almost a year. He wants this new technology to be apart of his life. The exoskeleton helps you stand up, but you just have to balance. Paul took his first steps in almost a year. This a new technology that is going to be coming out soon. The physical exertion from this exoskeleton is not a lot. Many people expect for this exoskeleton to replace their wheelchairs.
I picked this story because this looks very innovative and cool. This can help a lot of people rendered helpless when it comes to walking around on an everyday basis.

That is very cool because it could really help paraplegics in their daily life.
