When the pressure goes up, this shaft just pulls on it, pulls on the metallic tendon, and that pulls on the joint to make its arm to go forward for example, or back. So, you can see these cylinders going in and out as he moves his arm up and down."
當(dāng)壓力升高時，活塞就往里推，從而推動金屬零件，進(jìn)而推動機(jī)器人的關(guān)節(jié)，使胳膊或后背向前運(yùn)動。因此，當(dāng)它提起或放下胳膊時，你會看到這些液壓缸在里外活動。
All those components are pretty heavy.
所有的這些組成部件都很沉重。
"When he's fully configured with power systems, he can weigh up to 450 pounds."
“當(dāng)裝上電力系統(tǒng)，配置齊全的時候，他體重就會達(dá)到450磅。”
But it won't take a superman to put on this super device. It is engineered to feel light on whoever wears it.
但是要穿上這套設(shè)備，并不是只有超人才行。只要一開動引擎，誰穿上它都會感覺輕松。
"He can feel the mass of 450 pounds, but he doesn't feel the weight. I can move the system around now just with my fingers, if I use his input. So, it basically floats. When he picks it up though again, and I've tried to push on him and he pushes on me, he has great strength. So the key is he can put out large forces, but he doesn't have to use much effort to do that."
它能感受到450磅的質(zhì)量，卻感受不到重力。如果利用它的輸入功能，我可以只用手指便能移動這個系統(tǒng)。它基本上是漂浮著。當(dāng)它再次抬起重物時，我推它，他也推我，它的力量很大。所以重點在于它能不費(fèi)吹灰之力對外界施加很大的力量。
How much can an Exoskeleton lift? How much do you want to lift?
Exoskeleton能舉起多重的重物呢？而你想舉起多重的重物呢？
"The computer can decide to have anywhere from zero to 3,000 pounds per square inch inside the cylinder. So the loads these cylinders can hold can be 1,000 pounds."
“計算機(jī)會決定液壓缸內(nèi)每平方英寸承受零到3000磅的重量。所以這些液壓缸能承受質(zhì)量為1000磅的重物。”
This super strength could come in handy in an emergency.
這種超能量可以在緊急情況下派上用場。
"Now there's many applications for the Exoskeleton in life-saving activities, and going into situations where you extract people that are injured, or where you move material that's hazardous to people."
“如今已為Exoskeleton開發(fā)出用于救生活動的軟件，并應(yīng)用到現(xiàn)實社會中去，比如將受傷群眾送往安全地帶，或者移動對人類有害的物質(zhì)材料。”
And the military wants to use it to take the pain out of heavy lifting.
而且軍隊也希望利用它來解除大型起重的痛苦。
"Many times with aircraft and other vehicles, you want to load munitions into them and they are heavy. And if you have to keep doing that all day, you'll get very tired. So, this is an issue of endurance."
“許多次，你想利用飛機(jī)和其它交通工具來搬運(yùn)沉重的軍火武器。一整天下來，你會精疲力盡。所以這也解決了耐力的問題。”
