Exoskeletons are coming!
Back in 1986, when Sigourney Weaver fought with the queen alien wearing the exoskeleton Caterpillar P-5000 Power Work Loader, it was considered the height of science fiction. Today, exoskeletons are no longer fictional, and their uses, be it lifting, manufacturing, defence or medical, are becoming increasingly developed. Being a new and novel technology raises a number of issues for insurers, however.
