A Japanese company has developed a robotic exoskeleton that works by detecting nerve impulses through the skin. This could be a huge development for many industries, including labor and rehabilitation, as it augments a person's natural motor functions and is able to increase the wearer's effective strength by 2-10x. It is also self supporting, so it adds no weight to the wearer's movements. (disclaimer: the following statement is pure, unsupported conjecture. Also, could be the first step towards real life Gundams, which would be quite awesome.)
This revolutionary company's name: Cyberdyne. That's right, the same company who will develop Skynet and cause robots to take over the world.
