Panasonic's power assist robot helps lift heavy objects

An employee of Panasonic's robot venture ATOUN demonstrates the company's Power Wear suit that can help people lift objects that are too heavy for them to lift on their own. The Japanese tech giant demonstrated the technology at its Tokyo office on Friday, May 17, 2019. ATOUN developed the Power Wear suit last year to help workers in professions like delivery, construction, and farms. [Photo: VCG]
