Despite the name, these aren't some crazy Andriod-based Power Glove replacements — in fact, they're about the farthest thing from it.

They accomplish this by offering exoskeleton protection, a system for stopping scaphoid injuries to the bone connecting the thumb to the wrist, honeycomb gel impact protection, wrist guard shrouds, and a BOA...

Forget all that "not certified for life support" stuff — they've been tested at more than 350 lbs., which should be... [More]
