- "My new armor. I finally found a way to merge all my different armor modes into one. Armor that can change shape and color scheme based on mission stats. Armor not attached to biology in the way that freaks just about everybody out but is completely attached to my brain synapses. I have to take this out."
- ― Tony Stark (Invincible Iron Man #1)
The ability to utilize a technologically powerful suit of armor. Mechanical variation of Clothing Generation, Exoskeleton, and Power Suit. Opposite to Symbiotic Costume and Enchanted Armor.

Capabilities
The user utilizes a specialized suit of armor by using technology alone. Armor may be powered by the user's thoughts, so the user would have to concentrate if the suit is to high-tech function properly. With all mechanical power the armor possesses, there are cutbacks. The suit may need a source of supply power to activate or the suit would use the user's life energy, thus rendering the user unconscious or dead. The suit may even enhance the powers of those who already have powers. The suit may be equipped with all sorts of gadgets the user can use.
