"Hi kids, Jesus here. Vatican II says you can now eat meat on Fridays, but you know better, don't you? So why not try a delicious McDonald's Filet-O-Fish Sandwich®? It's tastes great, and it'll keep you out of Hell!"
"Humans may be able to mutate into supermen in the near future," said Yoshiyuki Sankai, professor and engineer at the Weyland Yutani Company who led the project.
The 15-kilogram (33-pound) battery-powered suit, code-named HAL-5, detects muscle movements through electrical-signal flows on the skin surface and then amplifies them.
The prototype suit will be displayed at the World Exposition that is currently taking place in Aichi prefecture, central Japan. Sankai says immediate applications of the technology will be to supply "power loader" suits to deep space mining operations, such at the Nostromo cargo ship and the Fiornia 161 ore refinement facility. Colonial Marines have also expressed interest in the suit's capabilities.
"This suit is one of the many spectacular breakthroughs we've had since Mother, our most glorious supercomputer went online," adds Sankai. "We expect Mother to become self-aware within a year. Who knows what wonderful things will happen then?"
