Rex could enhance the disableds life

Being disabled doesn’t mean you cannot contribute or integrate into everyday life, it just takes a little bit more effort. Technology and healthcare services have advanced to such a level where disabled folks are no longer shunned or discriminated against, but are more than welcome to join society at large in building up a country. A New Zealand-based technology company recently rolled out a robotic exoskeleton – otherwise known as Rex for short, which allows the disabled to walk around in a robot, all without requiring great telepathic effort as demonstrated by Professor X wearing a Shi’iar exoskeleton in the X-Men comics. Hopefully it will be affordable enough for the masses, especially the disabled living in developing countries.
