Unified Weapons Master, or UWM, is a hybrid martial art developed by the Australian start-up firm Chiron Global using Smart technology in a gladiator-style, carbon-fiber armored suit. UWM is the first sport that combines Gaming technology with weapons-based Combat sports. The armored suit technology, also known as “The Lorica suit”, completely protects its user's body while electronic sensors record an opponent's strike position and power on the body. Opponents use a variety of martial arts and weaponry to attack each other and software keeps score of the damage that would have been done to an unprotected body.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work =Daily Mail )〕 The Lorica suit derives its name from the Latin word ''Lorica'' literally meaning “body armor”. Also, the name references various armor types of the Roman army such as the Lorica segmentata. ==Background== Forsell first envisioned UWM when attending while training Krabi Krabong at the Buddhai Swan Sword Fencing Institute in Bangkok. While there, Forsell envisioned a forum for all the world's myriad weapons-based martial arts to be practiced at once. Weapons-based martial arts have been practiced globally throughout history and, although most have died out due to modernizing warfare, there are ninety-six arts still practiced. Yet there is no platform for cross-discipline challenges to objectively determine a winner. In addition, full-contact fighters using weapons are near impossible since, “barring all-out death matches, there’s really no way for weapons based martial artists to really test their skills.”〔 The founders therefore sought to establish one single arena for comprehensive competition.〔
