The exoskeleton or Iron Man

Of course, not everyone can be as beautiful, successful and intelligent as billionaire Tony Stark. But almost every inhabitant of the Earth has a chance to become Iron Man thanks to a special costume. After exoskeletons long ceased to be a fantasy. And today, I will discuss some really existing models.

PROJECT called TALOS
Suit development began in the last year, but more recently it has been presented to the public. Such a suit is able to provide a good soldier protection, as well as additional features such as: endurance and strength.

Over the past year they have managed to do three "iron man suit." Now all these suits are tested. It is also known that the last trials will be held in 2018.


The suit is equipped with a special computer with which you can always keep in touch with the base. Also in costume includes various sensors, which will not only monitor the state of your body and health, but also to maintain it in good condition.
costume design, as well as its technical equipment TALOS is in collaboration with 16 government agencies, 13 universities, 56 corporations and 10 laboratories.

According to Admiral William Makreyven this project will be able to turn the concept of a person in combat. Now he will be able to do more while spending less effort.


The exact specifications of the exoskeleton TALOS not disclosed. The more so because at the moment there are only the first of its prototypes. It is expected that the final version of the suit will be accepted by the US Army.

PROJECT called XOS 2
XOS 2 - is the brainchild of Raytheon Company of the University of Salt Lake City. This exoskeleton greatly increases the power of man in it, and protects it from a number of external influences.

However, the armor from XOS exoskeleton 2 There is still no. The suit is designed primarily for military logistics that need to carry heavy loads. This XOS 2 is really good. It also allows a person to break the brick walls and wooden beams interrupt.

The main drawback of XOS 2 - this is a problem with his autonomy. Exoskeleton only works when connected to an autonomous power source. But Raytheon company promises to fix it in the new version of its superkostyuma, adding there is also steel inserts to protect a soldier from a firearm.

While some organizations are working to create exoskeletons for military purposes, to create the perfect soldier for killing enemies, others are developing suits that allow the sick and injured during the fighting people to lead a full life.

Thank you all for your attention!
