A hiker spotted an advertisement for a "Mountaineering Assistive Exoskeleton" by Eulon Robot at the base of a mountain in China. The device claims to cut knee joint load by 3-5x, reduce climbing energy consumption by 35%, and boost walking distance 2-3x plus 15% cardio endurance — a real-world consumer exoskeleton deployment in Chinese tourist sites.
