List of films featuring powered exoskeletons

Edit links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There is a body of feature films, mainly live-action, featuring powered exoskeletons.[note 1] Popular Mechanics said the growth of visual effects at the start of the 21st century allowed for such exoskeletons to be featured more prominently in live-action films.[1] LiveScience said in 2013 that it was fairly common to see powered exoskeletons in films and that it helped educate the public about potential real-life use.[2]
