The "Iron Man" on the Tibetan plateau - the exoskeleton of China's individual soldier made a brilliant debut
A report exploded on foreign social media: the military region of the Ali region of Tibet on the mainland actually equipped the border guards with a brand-new individual exoskeleton!
On the plateau at an altitude of 5,000 meters, the soldiers are as powerful and domineering as "Iron Man", which makes people want to ask: Is this a science fiction film?
It has to be said that this equipment upgrade has attracted the attention of the whole world. After all, in most people's impressions, the individual exoskeleton is still a thing in science fiction movies, but I didn't expect it to appear in reality so soon.
It seems that China really did it!

From Science Fiction to Reality - The "Past and Present" of Individual Exoskeletons
Speaking of individual exoskeletons, you may think of scenes from science fiction movies such as "Elysium". That's right, the "black technology" in these movies has now gone out of the screen and come to us.
The individual exoskeleton is actually the imitation and application of biomimicry to animal exoskeletons. Arthropods such as shrimps, crabs, and insects, how hard and powerful their shells and skins are.
And our human bodies, while flexible, lack in strength and endurance. So, scientists came up with the idea of augmenting our abilities through exoskeletons.
After years of research and development, the individual exoskeleton has changed from the initial conceptual model to a high-tech equipment for practical application. It is not only widely used in the military field, but also gradually penetrates into various fields such as medical treatment and daily life.
For example, a delivery boy can easily carry a heavy takeaway box when he wears it, and construction workers can work at heights more efficiently with the help of it.

Sino-US "exoskeleton war" - latecomers prevail?
Although the technology of individual exoskeleton is not original to us in China, when it comes to the speed of development and achievements, we have to break it up.
Let's talk about the United States first, the United States has a "long history" of research in the field of individual exoskeletons, and began to ponder this technology as early as the 1960s.
At that time, in the United States, it was estimated that while watching "Iron Man", he thought: "We also have to make a device like this, so that soldiers can become superheroes!"
However, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny. After so many years, although the United States has released some concept art and videos from time to time, everyone exclaims "It's so cool!"
But in reality, it doesn't seem to have produced any decent results. Either the technology is immature, or the cost is too high, in short, the thunder is loud and the rain is small.
As for China, although it started a little late, it has been steadily advancing step by step. Just like our ancestors said: "If you are not afraid of slowness, you are afraid of standing." Although China's research in the field of individual exoskeletons started late, it has made rapid progress.
In 2019, the "Super Warrior-2019" Individual Exoskeleton System Challenge was held in China. In this competition, the participating soldiers have to wear an individual exoskeleton to carry an additional 25 kilograms and march 5 kilometers, and also complete a series of difficult events.
The scale and level of this game are enough to prove China's strength and determination in the field of individual exoskeletons.
Moreover, through this competition, China has also selected a group of excellent R&D teams and soldiers, laying a solid foundation for the future R&D and application of individual exoskeleton equipment.

The power of technology – how China is turning science fiction into reality
When we talk about China's rise in science and technology, we can't just stare at the technology of individual exoskeletons! In fact, China's scientific and technological strength is like opening up the "power of the wilderness," which is blooming everywhere and developing in an all-round way.
Let's start with the south-to-north water diversion project and the west-to-east gas transmission project! These two projects are not only large-scale and technically difficult, but also reflect the Chinese's ingenious allocation and efficient use of resources.
The South-to-North Water Transfer Project allows the arid regions of the north to enjoy the abundant water resources of the south, while the West-to-East Gas Transmission ensures the energy supply of the eastern region. These two projects are like China's "magic wand", and with a single wave, many thorny problems have been solved.
China's high-speed rail is not only fast and safe, but also spreads all over the country, making it the first choice for people to travel.
From Chang'e's lunar exploration to Tianwen's fire exploration, to the construction of the space station, every breakthrough in China's aerospace industry has attracted the attention of the world. Behind these achievements are the unremitting efforts and innovative spirit of the Chinese people.
In China, there is a saying called "bury your head in hard work". This sentence perfectly interprets the attitude of the Chinese people in the development of science and technology.
They are not afraid of difficulties and failures, as long as they identify a goal, they will work hard in a down-to-earth and silent manner. It is precisely this spirit that has enabled China to make achievements that have attracted worldwide attention in many fields.
Of course, it is not enough to "bury your head in hard work", you also need the support and guidance of the government.
The Chinese government attaches great importance to the development of science and technology, and has not only formulated a series of preferential policies to support scientific research institutions and enterprises in R&D and innovation activities, but also invested a lot of money to promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements and industrial upgrading.
This good atmosphere of "the government setting up the stage and the enterprises singing" has made China's science and technology industry flourish.

Create a better future together - a win-win situation for science and technology and peace
In the face of China's technological rise, we should recognize that technology knows no borders. The scientific and technological achievements made by any country are the common wealth of all mankind.
Therefore, all countries should strengthen cooperation and exchanges to jointly promote the progress and development of science and technology. Only in this way can we turn more sci-fi dreams into reality and create a better and more harmonious world together.
At the same time, we must also recognize the importance of peace and development. The development of science and technology is not only aimed at enhancing national strength and improving people's living standards, but also for maintaining world peace and stability.
In this era of globalization, no country is immune. Only through international cooperation and exchanges and joint efforts to address global challenges and problems can true peace and development be achieved.
The rise of China's science and technology has not only attracted the attention of the world, but also brought us many inspirations and thoughts. We should embrace the development of science and technology with an open mind, and jointly promote the progress and prosperity of mankind with peace and development as the goal.
Let's look forward to a win-win future for science and technology and peace.
