Recently, some Korean scientists made a new kind of robotic suit. They call it a "wearable robot."

 

This robotic suit looks like normal clothes. It is very thin and soft. Also it is only 1 kilogram.

 

The suit gets its power from electricity and springs. The springs move like muscles. It adds power to a person's movement.

This "wearable robot" will help workers. It will also help senior citizens.
