One of the "Six Little Dragons in Hangzhou", the robot of Unitree Robotics became an instant hit on the Spring Festival Gala. The exoskeleton robots that assist in mountain climbing have also made their appearances one after another in scenic spots such as Mount Tai and Mount Huangshan, and quickly gained popularity. This kind of equipment can relieve the burden on the legs and can be applied to various scenarios such as hiking, mountain climbing, and going upstairs.

The new - quality productivity of wearable assistive robots, artificial intelligence, and the silver - haired economy have repeatedly appeared in the motions and proposals prepared by deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Zan Shengda, a deputy to the National People's Congress and the chairman of Jiangsu Zongyi Group, appealed that by virtue of the huge domestic silver - haired market, the research, development, and application of the intelligent elderly - care robot industry should be taken as a key direction of the new - quality productivity, so as to help China seize the commanding heights of the robot industry and assist the elderly in achieving a leap from "ensuring the elderly are provided for" to "ensuring the elderly enjoy a high - quality life".

With the PLANCK+ exoskeleton robot, I can now walk continuously for hours again. Therefore, I'm extremely satisfied with this exoskeleton. I'm a member of a certain disabled persons' association, and I will definitely share my user experience within the association. Currently, all I need is an exoskeleton that can replace my damaged calf muscles. So far, I've only tried it near my home, but I'll soon take it to the mountains at medium and low altitudes to challenge myself. It's incredibly delightful to be able to walk again for an extended period. For users, a backpack - style bag might be more useful, which can facilitate outdoor carrying when the device is not in use. The robot took some time to "learn" my walking style, but once this problem was solved, I enjoyed the convenience it provided when going uphill (I only tried it on the stairs). When going downstairs, the braces kept my legs straight, so I didn't need to hold the handrail. The subsequent walking was also great.

The development of wearable assistive robots has gone through several stages: Exploration in Professional Fields: In the early days, exoskeleton robots were mainly applied in the medical rehabilitation field to help patients with spinal cord injuries stand up again. However, the equipment needed to be connected to an external power source and was costly. Application in Industrial Scenarios: With the development of technology, exoskeleton robots have been applied in industrial scenarios. For example, logistics enterprises have introduced lumbar exoskeletons, reducing the lumbar injury rate of workers, and the price of the equipment has also decreased. Breakthrough in Tourism Scenarios: Nowadays, thanks to technological advancements such as flexible sensors and micro-motors, the price of civilian exoskeletons has decreased, allowing ordinary tourists to easily experience wearable assistive robots. With the continuous development of technology, wearable assistive robots have broad prospects in the future. The application of new materials will further reduce the weight of the equipment and greatly improve the assistance efficiency, making it more convenient and labor-saving for tourists to use. In the future, it is expected to achieve more rapid and precise control of the exoskeleton through brain-computer interfaces, such as electromyographic signals, to achieve a high degree of human-machine collaboration. It can also form a "mountain climbing Internet of Things" with other smart devices to monitor tourists' physical signs in real-time, provide risk warnings for mountain climbing routes, etc., improving the safety and fun of mountain climbing.

From its initial application in professional fields to now becoming a magical tool for mountain climbing, the development of wearable assistive robots shows that technology is not about replacing humans, but rather expanding the possibilities for humans to experience nature. This is a perfect integration of technology and nature, and also a manifestation of the progress of civilization. In the future, human - machine collaboration will continuously bring us new surprises.
