Could a robotic exoskeleton give humans Earth like movements on a high gravity planet?
Logically a born and raised on a planet with Earth-like gravity would move slower on a high gravity planet, and would be both faster, and possibly clumsier in low gravity. In my world humanity has colonized many planets, and there are exoskeletons, similar to the ones in Advanced Warfare, that give enhanced physical abilites. Let's say there is an app that connects to the user's exoskeleton, and has two primary settings. One is the gravity the wearer is used to (their homeworld) and the other is the gravity where the exoskeleton will be used. It will automatically adjust to allow the wearer to move the way they do on their homeworld. Does this seem plausible?
EDIT: I know that high gravity could screw up a human's organs, we're talking minor differences in movement here. The average human colony world is between 0.6 and 1.3 G
