I agree John that having 10 possible tools each adding some behavioral/physical assistance would be most welcome. True that a fall occurs so quickly, but if the robot-tethered device does provide some stability, maybe the strengthening provided could help avoid a fall entirely. Improved reaction time or increased awareness from this fall prevention focus, even in that half second leading to a fall might help avoid a disasterous one.
