    Clever in that being controlled by a arm glove and jacket with sensors that mimic the movements of the wearer it is very accurate. In the past relying on joystick operation, it was very difficult to train operators to manipulate the controls, which were in reality the rhelm of the nerd/ gamer.

    Very similar to the technology used by our forces not that long ago... Whereby the operator was the robot and most rendering safe was done by hand.
