Geriatric simulation is interesting, but couldn't this also be applied to pediatric simulation for improved vision, hearing, strength and endurance? I don't see any show stoppers preventing the development of a youth-augmentation exosuit blending AR sensory augmentation, powered exoskeleton support, haptics, and AI adaptive controls.

Just spitballing:

- Powered exoskeletons aren't quite "there"

- If moving at all is painful, having an exoskeleton move you will also be painful

- Haptics and AR aren't quite there either

- Batteries, it's always batteries
