Video: Designing Iron Man's laser shooting gloves and Captain America

No need to have billions of dollars like Tony Stark or SHIELD, two Allen Pan and Grant Imahara can also create a glove to shoot lasers like Ironman, or Captain America's special shield.

Challenging each other to bring iconic weapons from Marvel's world into real life, they had a pretty impressive performance with their inventions. Do not use durable Vibranium alloys, nor with the help of advanced biotechnology, but Allen Pan has a plan to make the "cosplay" shield secure the abilities that the real shield has: Unmanned aircraft.

Pan began designing Parrot AR- based shields . Drone 1.0 , but he quickly found that software that makes aircraft easier to control also inadvertently hindered his demands on the product. Therefore, Pan decided to spend about 160 hours refining another similar drone, WLToys V262 , with a mounted perforated shield above, allowing air to flow. Pan controls it through a remote control worn on the forearm. This just helps him to throw shields like Captain America, while making sure he can catch the shield when it comes back.

Allen Pan was checking his shield.

Meanwhile, the weapon that Grant Imahara designed was somewhat more dangerous. First, he proceeded to print 3D parts of the glove, including the forearm. It takes a total of 5 days to complete this task. Next is 76 hours of cleaning, assembling, finishing wiring, programming and paint to make it more realistic. The most important part is probably the 5.5-watt 'laser gun' mounted on the forearm, which can be raised when needed and folded when not in use.

Previously, construction engineer Allen Pan used to be known when designing a Thor's hammer and taking it to perform on the street, indicating that only he could lift it. Grant Imahara graduated from the University of Southern California (USA) with a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, served as the leader of the famous science program MythBusters.
