They’re reports on modern attempts toward super-human senses and exoskeletons.
The last research I did on this was back with the Land Warrior program at US Army, maybe 25 years ago. That didn’t go anywhere.
I think it was the last link talking about exoskeletons that seems bs. Joe Rogan aptly asks the guy what powers it and he says a nuclear battery, which is plainly bs. Fission batteries have very low power density. They just go and go for decades, but not the kilowatts necessary for a human enhancement suit. If they’re doing this they must be using batteries, and maybe recharging them with nukes, but I doubt they’d be built in. Use the nukes for overnight recharging.
Anyway, Titansuits and Superman eyes seem popular ideas here and the forum is too quiet, so; have at.

Thanks for bringing some context, appreciate it. I think the most realistic (attainable?) exo representation I've seen in movies to this point are the units in The Edge Of Tomorrow, they're not exactly mechs but they do seem to genuinely enhance the pilot and provide them a highly mobile platform.
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge on battery tech. Unless it's the most armoured piece of the vehicle you're not really going to want radioactive isotopes on a battlefield, a captured unit becomes much more dangerous to you in handing your opponent resources they may not otherwise have access too and all it takes is something as simple as a boggy patch of ground to have a unit lost to potential capture.
I don't know if there are more dense batteries or more efficient motors...?

We’re pushing the edge of both energy density and power density with lithium batteries for years now. It used to be a big deal to get 1kw out of a small battery that could be put in a small RC plane. Now you can get a couple kw out of something the size of a pack of cigarettes. Trouble is they’re completely discharged in 5 minutes run.
I agree Edge of Tomorrow is an insightful guess about what DoD is up to, though I know for a couple decades now they’re looking at adding a backward folding knee below the foot, which makes it easy to run at 60 mph. See the old “springwalker” tech.If you can make these things operate on just a few kw, you might get half hour duty cycle. That would be quite a thing on the battlefield.
The earlier link is more impressive. Augmenting sight the way the guy talks about is totally feasible—see through walls, see IR signatures, hyper spectral imaging—yeah, that’s all a thing. Giving it to every soldier is terrifying as there is no way to hide.

I kept seeing the thread title and not clicking it, but I just couldn't hold back anymore. IVAS or rather ivás means drinking in my language. That should explain why I just had to click it.
But I see no drinks around, not even a supersoldier serum, so my disappointment is unmeasurable, and my day is ruined.
