Knox Handroid glove promises to make motorcycle falls safer [w/video]

Knox Handroid movement – Click above to watch video after the jump

The Knox Handroid is the latest thing in evolution that will take us to biomech suits. An exoskeleton supports a Kevlar and kangaroo hide glove. Thermoplastic spines protect all of your fingers and are anchored to all but the pinky and thumb, and the ratchet mechanism tightens 19 stainless steel wires that cinch a pair of braces to spread pressure across your forearm. That latter system has a lifetime warranty, and the glove still has numerous other features to help you keep your skin on your bones. Follow the jump for a couple of vids on its movement and construction.
