Forget E-Bikes, the Dnsys Exoskelton Motorizes Your Body
@daceto817: I'm not trying to be disrespectful of people with any kind of disability. What I am saying is there is a difference between people who might use this because they have a disability and this allows them to go outside more, and those who simply choose to use it so they put in less effort. A selling point of this device is keeping your heart rate low, but for healthy and physically capable people getting your heart rate up is a good thing.
My dad has a heart condition, so I see value in what they are trying to sell. However if I were to use this because I just don't want to break a sweat while hiking I might want to consider simply not going for a hike since I don't have any actual reason for needing assistance.

Forget E-Bikes, the Dnsys Exoskelton Motorizes Your Body
I have realized I must be the weird one who actually likes doing the things, and not just saying that I do the things. I realize this could help people with true disabilities, but if someone is physically capable and chooses not to put in the effort they might want to ask themselves if this is really something they want to participate in. I'm sorry, but to all the E-bikers and now E-hikers, simply saying you were able to go all day shouldn't be the point.
