The exoskeleton modification direction is worth noting, but the key to implementation is battery life and cost. If the B2 battery lasts 20 minutes, how long can it support carrying a person? Without sustainable ROI, this story stays stuck in videos.

From a logistics scheduling perspective, the load capacity and battery life after such modifications are key metrics. Is B2's torque density sufficient for warehouse handling scenarios? Has anyone tested walking efficiency under load?

Looking at industry trends, the key variables for modifying consumer-grade robot dogs into exoskeletons are cost and human-machine interaction latency. Benchmarking against overseas cases, MIT's Cheetah exoskeleton research focuses more on torque control—is B2's torque density sufficient?

Modifying the Unitree B2 for exoskeleton assistance is a cool idea. However, using a quadruped robot for load-bearing walking presents challenges regarding dynamic balance stability margins. I wonder if the blogger implemented personalized adaptations for gait planning.
