Using knee support for soldiers in Kashmir - A suggestion

[graphican]

Hello everyone,

There is a concept of "exoskeleton" that lifts the body-weight and enables soldiers to carry heavier loads. A simpler spring-powered inexpensive version of an exoskeleton can reduce knee-stress up to 60%, enabling soldiers to use less energy when moving in a mountainous region like Kashmir. Pakistan Army should evaluate this for the proud soldiers guarding borders in mountainous regions.

Nice. But not applicable. Won't give much mobility and explosive movements...
