3. Iron Man Dual Laser Glove
Are you a fan of Iron Man? If that’s the case, this gadget is sure to woo you. The Iron Man Dual Laser Glove, as the name suggests, is designed to look like it’s built by Tony Stark himself. Built by YouTuber-inventor LaserGadgets, it can emit 800mW red and 3000mW blue lasers. Additionally, it can also shoot shells out of the motorized component near the knuckles.
4. Bulletproof Suit
This bulletproof suit looks like any tuxedo but packs the protection of an armored vest. After you put this suit on, no bullet will be able to penetrate your clothes.

Developed by Citizen Armor in tandem with designer Sam Surin, the suit stopped 9mm pistol rounds quite easily.
5. Octopus Arms
These robotic tentacles are certainly similar to those worn by the Spider-man villain Doctor Octopus. This project came to life from the work of Bitcoin millionaire, Erik Finman. The 23-year-old crafted the Doc Ock arms, using 3D printing, for a kid named Aristou Meehan, who is the son of one of his mentors. Further, the mechanical arms are fully functional, and each of the four limbs can be controlled by the wearer using the middle finger on either hand.
