In his report to Livescience, Browning revealed that his exosuit is powered by three (3) miniature jet machines, which are attached to his arms and back. The principle of the invention lies on the concept that the human body is easy to train and to maneuver to do specific tasks. Hence, instead of engaging on iron and/or aluminum to construct his machines like building robots, he turned to the human machine, which is himself first to make his invention.
Additionally, NBCnews revealed Browning's futuristic technology to be patterned after the Greek myth of Daedalus. He got inspired and thought of making himself fly with the suit. The Daedalus has a trigger at the right hand and this serves as the controls of the arm engines. The left hand also has a trigger that operates the rear engines.
