Honda have built a device to enable you to run at speeds of up to 50Mph not. Now there is no excuse not to rob the local bank or become a happousai pantsu thief - thanks to Honda. More pics at Akihabara News.
That must put a terrible strain on the area between one's legs. I'm assuming this, of course...
Damn it, you tricked me.
i got tricked too...orz one could easily win the olympic wearing this... if it runs at 50mph... then you will need extra thick platform shoes to be able to brake...
You didn't need to be that confusing... Despite that it seems to be a really interesting and useful invention.
Lol.... gg this one was fun
Is it internally gas powered? *backfire*
lol bio-gas powered. ^^
Hybrid Gas powered....
With that old people can run again....^^
Only if they upgrade their suspension.
One word, abrasion... Hope it doesn't hurt the nuts...
LOL, thus the new running style knows as the waddle was born!
Roasted nuts due to the friction energy. *lol*
We gonna become Cyborgs one day!!
man i hope that day come soon...
In 20 years, everything will be made of steel and can fly.
This was something new, damn. I wonder how it feels to use, probably a pain after a while.
Interesting idea with this device. Soon we will be like characters from Ghost in the shell :D
freaking awesome~ suddenly we became ninjas XDDD
lol you just made me want to re watch my ranam anime collection again Ranma: EROJIJI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't that chapter in To-Luv-Ru about meeting manga deadlines teach them anything? Imagine the machines carrying someone along who's already died of exhaustion... And I don't think I believe this. I mean, able to life 20kg with a mechanical exoskeleton is something realistic... but this is almost as fast as the fastest SPARTAN-II. Here she is: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Kelly
VTEC just kicked in 'yo?
Meh~~ Give me something that'll make me jump 50 ft into the air then we'll talk
1st step oh human to become Gundam. "Orewa hondam" XD
hmmm. . . looks like giant headphones ._.but lol if they added a mini boost in there with a small generator and a small radiator, you will have yourself a personal muscle tracer[MT]
I'd love to see someone trip with that thing on. I could see them on the floor while their legs are just moving around in a frantic pace. Who in their right mind would jump in to help them? I'm pretty sure they'll die of being kicked over and over and over again.
Clock Up!
Basically it'll put you in Trans-Am mode, then lose 90% of your strength after :p
Like in one of Doraemon Adventure's stories, you mean? Where robotic has become so advanced that humans only need to think to convey command to those robots and let the robots do every task since they're simply capable of everything. And the robots suddenly rebel against humanity and... ^^
it feels like April 1st all over again. ('~')
Reminds me of Meitantei Conan's Shoes :D This one's pretty good I think, anybody think that this device could reduce the number of vehicles?
Whoa!! i like that. I like to run because i want to lose my weight.
I guess the 46 year old man from the older post who stole "1666 items of underwear" (previous article here on dannychoo.com) was testing this thing, the battery went low and so the police could catch him. BTW: this could be helpful if you try to play Real Life "Mekuri Master" (Digital Version: http://nigoro.jp/game/mekuri/index.php?lang=en)
Just imagine what if the device went haywire and it cannot be stop, until the battery runs out that's it. The user would become..what? lol.
Too bad it doesnt make you run that fast. Hmm so what does this do exactly?
It's a walk-assist device for people with walking problems, and could be adapted (With some myomer fibers and a bit of wiring) to help paraplegics walk again.
another interesting piece of technology to help the disabled in society... bet the military already has 1st dibs on the tech...
after a run with that, you can amputate yours legs and put them into a chest of drawers. but don't worry! for that time they have already invented some bionic legs for run at 100mph!
I'm too scared of having my legs ripped off by this device, while in use, to buy it O__O
I wonder if there's any videos of this in use as of yet.
Another step in the direction of cyborg bodies. Slowing going, but we'll get there before too long...
I was thinking the same. After the power suit, this, integrated soldier gear etc..., we are moving fast towards Gundam, Knightmares and other Alien II dock carrier !
a few more years and we'll see KOS-MOS from Xenosaga ^_^ why didn't they take that picture with a swimsuit model? :P
I hope they upgrade it before I kick the bucket... It's the beginning of making some of my dreams come true. And I don't mean metaphorical dreams... I really mean dreams. Dunno why, I dream a lot that I'm running crazy speeds and jumping crazy heights with minimum effort.
ONLY IN JAPAN!!! LOL!
Wow, nice invention... xD
Wouldn't mind having this actually. Since it can travel around the speed of a car, it's much better considering that cars can only travel on roads where else you could go almost anywhere in an instant on this device.
You legs can move that fast but your feet will not be able to handle all the pressure.
