A robotics company IN Utah have come up with a working "Iron man" suit, which is able to multiply a person's strength and endurance by up to 20 times when wearing it.

The 70kg mechanical suit has a computer "brain" that is able to sense the movement of the person wearing it, and then amplify those movements almost instantaneously through a series of hydraulic valves mimicking the tendons in the human body.

Nice idea, but obviously not really a cheap toy.
