Summary draft #1 (Where's My Supersuit)

In the article “Where’s My Supersuit in Conversation”, Zelik (2019) states that for the past five years, the wearable exoskeletons that aid in mobility were introduced to the public after lab approval. These exoskeletons can lessen the workload and aid those with spinal injuries as well as provide a back-support system. In return, this relieves the stress and pain on the user's lower back. The article did mention that they have created a prototype of “spring-powered exosuit” to assist in walking and running. In addition, the article also states there is another related supersuit which might be capable of supporting human neck for those who had leaned forward for a prolonged period of time. This helps to reduce stress and neck pain. However, the article mentions a couple of disadvantages, such as unaffordability and its bulkiness, which could hinder tasks, as well as cause discomfort for people.
