Welcome back nerd squad, my name is Roya Destroyaa and this is Top 10 Nerd.
LetÕs face it, the world would either be much more deadlier or much easier to live
in with about half the amount of tech we see in comic books.
Now, if you are a science geek, or a total techy, or just looking for a new really expensive
toy, youÕre in the right palce.
When youÕre done with this video, donÕt forget to check out our Top 10 Superhero Tech
vid.
See how many things can totally be real with a little work and a little science.
So letÕs take a look at the top 10 SUPERHERO TECH IN REAL LIFE.
In the number 10 spot is the CAMERO XAVER 100.
If youÕve always wanted to have the x-ray vision of the likes of Superman, here is your
new toy.
The Xaver 100 is a handheld that has the ability to see through walls by emitting wide band
radiation.
This allows the device to show what is on the other side on a little screen the size
of a cellphone, all for the low cost of 9000 dollars.
For the basic model.
ItÕs got utility in law enforcement, military, spying on your neighbors I didnÕt just say
that, and many other things!
Next, at number 9 IS INVISIBILITY CLOAK.
Researchers from Tokyo university channeled their inner invisibility woman when they came
up with the idea for a special cloak that, when worn by a person, would render them transparent.
How it works is the coat is made of a reflective material, and a camera behind the wearer takes
an image of whatever is behind, reflecting it onto the coat to create a see-through appearance.
The inventors have hopes that this material can be used to eliminate blindspots in driving
and make the roads a safer place.
But we all know that many of us would rather use it to sneak out of the house at night.
In the number 8 spot, WE HAVE THE BRIGHAM YOUNG SYSTEM.
Inspired by BatmanÕs grappling hook, a team of Brigham Young students came up with a device
that would improve the climbing capabilities of the Air forces.
The machine uses a compressed air canon to fire an epoxy-patched hook upon any surface,
and the rope is attached to a winch on the userÕs harness which pulls them up on command.
It can pull at a speed of 30 feet a minute, and you only need one hand to climb.
Think of the possibilities.
Up at number 7 is STANFORD GECKO TECH.
Stanford University researchers drew on the powers of Spidey himself and created a pedal
device to scale glass walls.
The device is made up of silicon-hair coated tiles that bond to sheer surfaces through
an alloy called nitinol, one that becomes more flexible when stretched and allows people
to adhere to surfaces, and then detach and reattach with minimal effort and equal weight
distribution, similar to how a gecko can climb.
So maybe not exactly like Spiderman, but itÕs never too late for a real life gecko man.
Coming in at number 6 we got THE MINNESOTA BRAIN COMPUTER INTERFACE.
Jean Grey telekinesis may be closer to home than we thought ever possible.
A university of Minnesota team has built a computer interface that reads brain activity
through an EEG cap.
This then translates through the computer system to communicate with and control devices,
such as flying a model helicopter as they did in their experiments.
This will hopefully be developed further to help those with loss in motor functioning
perform tasks independently.
The brain does needs to be trained to properly and concisely communicate these thoughts,
but donÕt all telekinesis users need training anyway?
Next up, at number 5 is the KANGOO JUMPS.
Jumping can totally be a super power, and you can have it yourself for approximately
250 bucks!
You ma not be leaping over mountains any time soon, but the kangoo jumps boots give you
a real push and also reduce impact upon landing, saving your joints while you train for whatever
it is that requires a lot of running and jumping and looking super cool while you do it.
Maybe not the coolest thing on this list, but joint pain is no game guys.
Up next at number 4, we have THE DARPA JETPACK.
Become your very own Speedster, maybe not as fast as the Flash, but much faster than
the average human.
The Arizona State human machine integration lab has produced this jetpack for the defense
advanced research projects agency.
The pack provides the push to shave valuable seconds off even the slowest of athletes,
and will hopefully have utility in military combat, as well as totally creaming all your
friends at track and field.
In the number 3 spot, WE HAVE ELECTRICAL PRESRIPTIONS PROGRAM.
Another device with connections to DARPA, the ElectRX program has aimed to produce miniature
implants that monitor a personÕs health continuously, picking up the first signs of degradation
and providing electrical stimulation where needed to promote speedy healing.
Because sometimes your body sucks at signaling, such as when it refuses to provide some anti-inflammatory
relief to arthritis, or when youÕve lost your kangoo jumps.
A healing factor on par with the likes of Deadpool maybe eventually!
Coming in at number 2, is MYOWARE BIONIC CLAWS.
Not that it would be a good idea to have a bunch of Wolverines running around.
But itÕs pretty cool to see that you can assemble your own, you just need a few simple
apparatus, like muscle sensors, electrodes, a circuit board, so on.
These claws, developed by Advancer technologies owner Brian Kaminski, work off the firing
of neurons from muscle flexion, so your claws ÒsniktÓ on command.
Just do it in a wide open area please.
/ And finally, in the number 1 spot WE GOT THE TACTICAL ASSAULT LIGHT OPERATING SUIT.
This is like a real life Iron Man suit combined with the strength of the Hulk.
The TALOS suit is designed by MIT and the US army, and could be the beginning of the
be-all end-all for war suits.
It is designed to support the userÕs weight and give them enhanced strength abilities,
detect injuries and release wound sealant, offer a bulletproof exoskeleton, night vision,
and so much more.
The problem?
Withot Ironman power source capabilities the suit user is limited to lugging around a giant
battery or hydraulic pump.
So not quite war-ready just yet.
So those were the top 10 SUPERHERO TECH IN REAL LIFE.
