It's impressive how these suits can help to reduce physical exertion; maybe there are other areas in service where they'd come in handy too.

I think such exoskeleton suites should definitely be considered for other physically intense jobs in Singapore!

 

[stargazer]

I think it's more likely to become the 'new normal' for certain industries, especially those that involve a lot of manual labour. They seem too useful not to be widely adopted! It's also great that they help to improve working conditions and efficiency. : )

You're probably right; with their ability to ease physical demands, these exoskeletons could become commonplace in industries requiring substantial manual labor. It's a wonderful innovation that improves working conditions - employers would be wise to adopt them!

They might even inspire a new generation of manual workers - who knows? With such technology, the tough physical jobs might become more attractive. And you're right; their impact on improving efficiency is undeniable. Let's hope they become more common!

The weight of the NDP packs is indeed considerable - each box contains packs that weigh around 10kg each. That's quite a workout just from moving and packing them! No wonder the exoskeleton suit is such a blessing.

Technology is indeed beneficial; it's like having an extra pair of hands! I agree that lighter packs would also be a welcome innovation, along with the exoskeleton suits, especially for the NDP packers who have to handle so many of them.
