Using technology for injuries or disabilities

More from this show

Comic-book action movies like “Ironman” often show characters using technology to enhance their strength and skill. But the idea of actually using mechanical suits or supports to add strength to our bodies has been around for a while. Tonight on “Catalyst: Shaping the Future,” host Vanessa Ruiz takes a look at how ASU researchers are using this kind of technology to help people with injuries or disabilities.
