Consumer-grade exoskeletons featuring a carbon fiber load-bearing frame weigh 37% less than aluminum alloy products in the same load-bearing class. This weight reduction directly lowers the wearer’s energy expenditure; after two hours of continuous use, metabolic load is reduced by 29%.
Achieving a “barely noticeable” wearing experience: The use of carbon fiber brings the total weight of the device down to the “kilogram range” or even lower—for example, some models weigh as little as 1.75 kilograms (excluding the battery)—allowing users to wear them for extended periods until they “gradually forget it’s even there.”
