Not many people think a remote controlled war flying machine, particle accelerators made from home plus men adorning metal suits making them impenetrable and able to wage war on their own could become real. However, scientists plus a handful of filmmakers involved in the making of Paramount’s Iron Man 2 think it’s possible and in a big extent, inevitable.

Visual effects supervisors for the film expressed that in the earlier silent films the emphasis on science fiction was lunar travel, and seemed largely preposterous in the height of the 1920s.

They believe that the film has the capacity to inspire an individual to try to create unprecedented Iron Man.

Even co-producer of the film, Jeremy Latcham expressed that the creative team of Iron Man 2 has the film’s visual effects even before they had turned to the Caltech team that did the effects for the science.

The suit part of Iron Man seems more realistic according to scientists and filmmakers. Caltech’s computer science assistant professor, Andreas Krause noted that experimentation with robotics towards making humans stronger was in progress since the 1960s, as done by companies such as General Electric.

In the modern world, the same robotics, outside experiments by the military, are aiding individuals in different ways in life. He expressed that only a few years separate the world from robotic suits able to fly while being equipped with weapons of high energy.

The assistant professor meant that Iron Man 2 could be a reality in a few years, since creating real-life robotics enabling individuals to transform their own physical manifestation is a desire humans have always had.
