It's enough to put a spring in one's step. A soft robotic suit has helped three people recovering from a stroke to walk better. The suit, developed by a team led by Conor Walsh at Harvard's Wyss Institute, is made of flexible fabric that attaches to the waist, thigh, calf and shoe. Cables fastened to the outside of the suit can contract in the same directions as muscles, helping to move the legs.
