4. Batman’s Suit
- Company: DC Comics
- Real Science: Engineering, Mechanical Science
- Possible to Recreate: Yes
Just about every bit of Batman’s suit can be recreated. There is still some comic book magic involved, however. The facts behind comic book characters like Batman are all pretty well-known by now. He can withstand great amounts of pain and can hold his own in a fight with anyone. His suit has to manage all of this and be possible for continued use though.
Armored suits that are easy to move in are already present today. Some are used in the Armed Forces while others can be seen in other fields. The really interesting part of his entire suit is the cape. He can glide using it and manage it with multiple weight changes. This is possible to do based on how the cape is formed but only for gliding off of taller structures. He can do this while maintaining control but could not fly with it, as flying and gliding are quite different.
