Simple Armored Personnel Unit From Japan Instead of Zion

Have you remembered those impressive APUs (Armored Personnel Units) in Matrix Revolutions? Now a simple prototype of APU appeared in the street of Japan.

Skeletonics, a small team of students in Japan designed and created the incredible mechanical skeleton that very easily lets us remind of the Armored Personnel Unit in Matrix Revolutions. The wearable mechanical skeleton is called Skeletonics: a hybrid of Skeleton and Mechanics. Based on human motion, they took 6 months to complete the powerful suit that can extend the movement of the human’s arms and legs, and unlike traditional exoskeleton robots, the suit doesn’t need any motor. The suit is made from aluminum panels and pipes.
