Power Armor

[Psycho Cat Industries]

Okay,here is the goal.
Without referencing to any series (Halo and Fallout included,design your own power armor.

Mine would be an open slot compression vest which absorbs energy and releases it back as a method to deflect any shrapnel or bullets from breaking my armor,a nano suit based undershirt linked to my closed antennae-helmet so I can turn invisible for remote amounts of time.The helmet itself would have cameras externally and a computer screen internally as well as the option to open up the helmet into an exposed eye setting if either breaks.Puts the generators inside closed armor shoulder compartments (a fan coming out the side of each shoulder as to allow ventilation) and suit up with vestments and legging based on the premise of sectioned armor.That is my basic power armor,what is yours?

*Power armor in this case being a method by which one may enhance abilities beyond natural boundary (such as a bio-suit which allows you to lift heavy objects) and runs on something as opposed to regular clothing.

 

[Wintermoot]

a full body suit that is normal fabric untill hit with foce (clubs bullets etc.) it runs on double A batteries or a minireactor that is attached on the back it also increases the wearers strength Millitairy versions have pockets to hold kevlar plates

 

[Souplex]

Large metal plates for the armor bits, servos for the power part. Fuel tank on back.

 

[Averant]

Now let's see...

From top to bottom:

Helmet would be an optics visor with three cameras covering a 270 degree FOV behind and beside me. Two antennae would be set up on the sides of my helmet, used to deploy an invisibility bubble, radius adjustable according to preference. Armor would be light overall, with energy packs powering said field focused on the back. Armor thickness would be focused on the front. Legs would be lined with ammo packs. Limbs would be lightly armored until the extremeties, which would be fitted with a high power compression jets. Bascially jet turbines that compress air into high powered blasts, allowing me to jump 5 story buildings and break walls. No shields.

Recon jumpsuit/ assassin CQC armor
Careful going in, speedy going out/ silent going in, no plan to get out.

I disappoint at lack of Starship Troopers in this thread. I bet I could describe the M.I. suits word to word without anyone noticing...

Starship Troopers,wasn't that the movie where the humans go to some comet that is inhabited by I guess Zerg like insects?If it is what I am thinking of then I love the scene where they are dissecting beetles in the beginning

That's the one!

Personally, I would go for the Iron Man route. Basically a self-contained flight-suit. That would be awesome.

Yeah,that would be cool.I would go for something of the like but,honestly I would be terrified trying to control such a device.Keep me down on Earth or up in space,not somewhere in between.

I like it.Perhaps some sort of hydraulics mechanism in your balancing?

WH40K power armour, done.

It's also a book written in the sixties that invented the concept of power armour.

Seems like it would make an interesting paper,the history of power armor.I LOVE IT

I've got a horrible feeling it would end up like the Iron Man imitations that other countries tried in Iron Man 2. XD

So long as it isn't Hammer Tech...


...I'm willing to take that risk.

+100 Respect good sir. +100 respect.

Mine would be a large network of armour enclosed muscle networks layered on your body in a skin tight suit, but would loosen if necessary for comfort or maneuvering. Across it, would be nerves that react to my own brain waves, allowing it to move in perfect sync with my natural body increasing my strength, speed, etc. Plus a simple helmet and breath appartus.

 

[tobi the good boy]

small nano bots that remain directly below that skin that have the power to stop even the most powerful gun fire and explosives and any damage done to the skin activates the litle robots regeneration mode that heals all cuts and scuffs. not sure if it actually counts as power armour but thats my 2 cents to add to this thread
