You might remember when Ripley, adeptly portrayed by Sigourney Weaver, climbs into a Powerloader to battle the "bitch" in Alien.

A robotics company named Sarcos has developed "an 'exoskeleton' of aluminum and electronics that multiplies [users'] strength and endurance as many as 20 times."
That sure would make moving furniture a heckuva lot easier. More details are here.
