There is a contest for this sort of thing (Score 1)

Anyone ever hear anbout the Tetsujin contest? "Teams build powered exoskeletons to augment the strength of one human in a weight lifting competition." Sounds like fun! I can't wait until more people build these things. Then, as the natural progression of robotic projects seem to always head to, the next generation of robot combat can take place! Think 'RobotJocks'... :/ http://www.servomagazine.com/tetsujin2004/
