No, it's not a full body suit, so wind and bugs, yuck will be a factor. Must move significantly faster than a human duh. Must not take off into the clouds with every step unless that provides the fastest means of transport Nice to have: Zero or close to zero extra fatigue compared to walking Able to handle rougher terrain than a perfectly flat paved road Not blow up the place when you get going and avoid throwing shards of pavement concrete into the faces of grandmas doing their grocery shopping as you pass by.
Optional to have: A system that does not desperately need a handwavium or other non-portable powersource. Improve this question. Community Bot 1.

Cleats or Snowshoes Your boots of speed could just provide better traction over rough terrain. What About Stilts? Powered Exoskeleton There are some design issues with powered exoskeletons. If you would, you would find they are: Light Very Energy Efficient I would go with a solid state battery , which stores electrical energy really well compared to many other batteries, and could be potentially recharged by solar arrays.

Adjustable Height The boots provide adjustable extensions. Powered But Alice's boots are not spring powered passive affairs, they're nano-tech-fusion-fuel-cell powered. Cruising Comfortably striding at 30mph will allow Alice to travel miles in 10 hours. Samuel Samuel They also look like possible to build with ancient era technology. If you could convince people to stop trying to lend you a horse So then our technique becomes: Spring off from the ground in a diver's position to minimize air resistance.
At the last moment, open hands and land. Then spring off with your arms, in a reverse diver's position with your feet pointed. Land on your feet, re-orient. Go back to 1. Details : Suit Construction - we need the suit to act like a spring on both ends. Possibly some sort of advanced metamaterial?
Effectively it will act as a form of Regenerative Braking, absorbing the kinetic energy of each landing and turning that into power for the next jump. Travelling this way will be technically difficult as in, it requires a high level of skill. Based on previous questions I think Alice might be capable of doing it with no assistance, but the average user would probably be in trouble.
So I would suggest some sort of vampiric computer assist system - this would be a HUD, a computer with a dumb AI, and micro-motors at each joint. It would take some of the energy of each jump to power, requiring increased effort, but would help the user coordinate each jump and go where they should be going.
Priming - Alice will need to "prime" the suit before use by jumping straight up and down. Each jump up will add energy, which will be absorbed and used to help power the next jump.
This will build up until the energy lost at each point equals the amount Alice is adding. Environmental and Alice damage - the most efficient angle to jump would be 45 degrees. However, consider that with this mode of movement, the amount of force impacted to the ground - and the amount of G-force Alice needs to handle at each landing and jump - is proportional to the vertical component of her movement.
The horizontal component is mostly carried through from jump to jump. So the shallower the suit can move, the less damage the environment and Alice will take. I suspect an angle in the 25 to 35 degree range will work best in terms of functionality vs speed, but Alice might need to experiment.
Increasing the height of the suit also reduces the G-forces Alice will experience by giving the suit more time to decelerate and accelerate.
Hills - it will be difficult to go directly up hills this way, although going down might be fun. I would recommend switchbacking up and down rather than going direct.

Hot Network Questions. Question feed. They figure this is the ultimate experience in adventure and fun and are taking advantage of it like never before. A record number of these stilts are getting sold in sporting good stores, specialty shops, discount stores, and online over the internet, all because with them you can accomplish extremely feats in athletics and exercise. When you buy jumping stilts, you are buying them to achieve what has long been deemed not possible.
With these, you can run quicker, jump higher, and walk with so much bounce in your step you look like a ball, but you will be a ball that is having a load of fun. Because stilts have been specially designed to produce maximum power generation using regular energy people who buy, jumping, stilts say they get much more exercise and adventure value from them. They say they can walk quicker, run like the wind, and jump like never before.
These stilts manage to harness standard energy within their springs, whether they are fiber or carbon and propel the person wearing them to achieve some amazing results quickly. Because this is equipment like all other sporting equipment is it necessary to purchase the proper protection gear that goes along with it.
