>Are you interested in chemical engineering by any chance? Also, I’m curious, are you planning to pursue formal education for this?
My background is in technology. I currently have 4 degrees, but I'm not planning on doing one in chemical engineering. My degrees are in Aerospace, general computer, network engineering, and a higher network degree with a focus on cyber security.
I looked into chemical engineering, and there just isn't any jobs in that in my area. Right now I mostly invest and deal with blockchain technologies to make money. I seriously doubt I will work again for someone in technology. There just isn't any jobs in that in my area, and there is personal reasons.
More than less, I was born in the wrong place and time to heavily worked in the robotic field. And unless if I get a heavy influx of cash. I seriously doubt I will ever be able to do anything serious in it outside of what I'm doing now.
It is what it is.

Remember this post and all in it was just a "what if". In this case, what if you were super rich like Musk.

>the exo skeleton you’re referring too would it resemble something that Ironman wears
To be honest, if I was developing military robots that is what I would aim for with our troops. Like a bunch of iron man full battle armor.
But with things outside of a live action environment where you are getting shot at. You only need something to help you run/walk longer, carry more, and so on. I can't remember off the top of my head, but if I recall right firefighter suites are 50 lb or so. Then if you have to move beams or something that might of fallen, pick up a person, and so on. An exoskeleton would made it like walking in a park.
Like it would be something like this but a better form factor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soe78h5KXtk or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWmFEoDjUc4

That doesn't look as cool, but keep in mind on my end it would've been about data collection.

>Can you explain to me what do you mean by data collection in regards with the exo skeleton?
You can put sensors all over the thing. This lets you know how the person moves in that job, how often they move in a way, and so on. If you attach special cameras to their uniform it can scan the room while they are doing their job.
You can then take this data and make simulations and use AI or people to find the best build for a robot for such an environment.
It's similar to how Amazon has their workers wear stuff for data collection. This giving the AI more data to help better train their thing. And robots can eventually just do the job.
