[SOUND] All right, speaking of robots, LG says it will show off a wearable SuitBot next week at the trade show.
It's essentially an exoskeleton that you wear to enhance your strength.
It's really for factory workers moving heavy boxes.
That sounds totally sweet.
You know what?
They should-
This'll be-
And you'll be at [INAUDIBLE] next week.
I am totally going to wear this.
You should really try-
This reminds me of the exoskeleton that they had at CES one year that
Made you old, made you a geezer.
Right, right.
This is way better.
This is pretty much the exact opposite, this isn't the first time we have seen exoskeleton suits that augment your physical capabilities but this is part of their new LG is sort of their focus on robots and AI and all this new fancy tech stuff.
But basically how close are we to a full blown Iron Man suit?
I mean-
Not very.
Hopefully by this-
Far from that.
[LAUGH]
Hopefully by the holidays.
I'm sorry to rain on your parade, but yeah, this looks nothing like Iron Man.
[LAUGH]
Really all you need are the arms and that's kinda the beginning of the Iron Man.
You also need a laser cannon in your chest.
Not looking for the laser cannon, I just want the suit part.
That's the limited edition part.
[LAUGH]
That actually comes on the i-mode, the laser beams.
[LAUGH]
That's worth $2,900, at least.
So we'll get more details on this next week, fortunately.
And Ben will be at IFA in Berlin, to hopefully check this out in person.
Yeah.
