Sarcos Powered Exoskeleton

So... this is how it is. Sarcos, a crazy ass company that builds robotics, came up with a powered suit that makes humans more powerful than fucking Megaman.

Ever dream of being like Iron man? Well I'm sure you will be able to but it will cost you an arm and a leg. But it will also give you superhuman strength.

It will never be available at a reasonable price and most likely will only be used by the military. As of now, there is no way to power the suit without a physical cord connecting to a massive power supply. Raytheon, a defense contractor, bought the company Sarcos and now owns the rights to this power suit.

"Built from a combination of sensors, actuators and controllers, the futuristic suit enables a user to easily carry a man on his back or lift 200 pounds several hundred times without tiring. Yet, the suit, which is being developed for the U.S. Army, is also agile enough to let its wearer kick a soccer ball, punch a speed bag, or climb stairs and ramps with ease." -Raytheon Co.

I feel this suit is a huge step towards a robotic world. But I also feel that the more technology man comes up with, the worse our world will become. Technology breeds power. Power breeds war. War breeds death.
