Fancy an e-bike for your feet? These radical Nike robo-shoes are the world's first 'powered footwear'

• Nike’s latest shoe uses robotics to power people
• It is designed to help "anyone with a body" walk or run faster and further
• Nike says it is looking to commercialize the tech

Nike has announced arguably the wildest creation to come out of its Oregon-based Research Labs in the form of the world’s first "powered footwear system”.

Partnering with robotics expert Dephy, Nike's Project Amplify is designed to help everyday, run-of-the-mill folks walk or jog a little bit faster.

A high-end, carbon-plated running shoe is mated to a robotic leg brace, which consists of a powerful motor, drive belt and rechargeable ankle cuff battery that essentially takes the heavy lifting out of walking or jogging.
