-"The Boy in the Bubble" 1978, David (1971-1984) 
  
-As his mother looks on, six-year-old David plays with a water hose during one of his initial ventures outside the confines of the Texas Children's Hospital in Houston in June 1978. David was born at the hospital with an extremely rare hereditary disorder known as severe combined immune deficiency. Because his brother had died of the disease, doctors immediately placed David into a plastic isolation unit that acted as an artificial immune system. The NASA-made mobile isolator system shown here allowed him a degree of mobility. David, who became known to the world as "the boy in the bubble," lived in such isolators for nearly 13 years. He died on February 22, 1984, following an unsuccessful bone marrow graft, an attempt to provide him with the capacity to make antibodies on his own and thus free him from the bubble.

-Sho Hasegawa, a student at the Tokyo University of Science, is making a demo of the Muscle Suit, designed to support the muscle movements of the elderly or disabled. By controlling air compression, it can help bend and stretch arms, and twist elbows both inward and outward. 
-The lack of a full metal frame for this pneumatic robot suit makes it much lighter. The pneumatic system does not have any heavy electric actuators or hydraulics either.\\

 +Inflatable Exoskeleton, Professor Hiroshi Kobayashi,Japan.\\ 
 +Basically instead of using heavy hydraulics, the exoskeleton uses air compression, which can help bend or straighten arms. 
 +The suit mimics the body's system of connecting muscles to bones via tendons. It could be used to boost the strength of specific muscles, such as biceps or triceps. The artificial muscles are made up of inflatable rubber tubes surrounded by flexible metal mesh connected at each end to the joints on the suit. When the tube inflates, the mesh bulges, which in turn pulls each end in and shortens the artificial muscle. Pressure sensors all over the suit would tell the artificial muscles when to kick in.  
 +Check out the video of the suit in action.
