With more and more soldiers going off fighting in Iraq and other places the risk of them getting injured or even killed is forever getting higher and higher. Therefore, the need for prosthetic limbs is becoming more in demand the peice of technology in the photo above is used on a soldier that hasn't lost him arm but was paralysed and it uses hydraulics to sensors the move and function his arm so he can at least do the basics things to get around. While this works its only a concept at the minute but shows promise by winning the Dyson Award for the design of the product if this comes in manufacture it will change many life's effected by war injuries and change how people see and use technology.
