Robot exoskeleton (June 2004)
There is also Robot exoskeleton article. I think that should be redirected here for the time being. Below is the text from that page.
- es: exoesqueleto robótico
- The powered robot exoskeleton, is a suit to aid the aged or physically disabled people to walk, climb stairs, or sit down. It consists of a computer, batteries, and four actuators at the knees and hip joints.
- An example, it´s HAL-3 (Hybrid Assistive Leg),
- See also : robotics, robot.

Robot exoskeleton (October 2004)
User:Toytoy has just demerged this article, pretty much into the same divide as was merged in June. As I've written on their Talk: page, I'm not sure either article is big enough to warrant splitting yet and, imho, the term "robot exoskeleton" isn't entirely appropriate for all the content on that page, so I've reverted the changes. Can we discuss it here, as I kinda agree with the point Toytoy's trying to make, but I don't think the current divide is right, nor do I think that Robot exoskeleton is the right term for the 'other' page. Let's try to reach consensus and then do the demerge? — OwenBlacker 15:57, Oct 26, 2004 (UTC)
- I think the biological exoskeleton deserves a much better article. However, I am not that good to write on this complex issue. I think the mechanical part of this article will be better inserted into various robot- or armour-related articles. A good encyclopedia has to have excellent articles on basic scientific topics. I will propose a possible outline of the exoskeleton article later. -- Toytoy 16:15, Oct 26, 2004 (UTC)
