Prosthetic limbs are making huge advancements recently and there are many people working on improving them.  Prosthetics are extremely important because of the opportunities they offer to people who are not able to have this options normally.  People who have lost their legs or arms can now do things previously thought impossible.  With new technology they are able to sense and feel closer to real touch.  Computers now also play a very large role in improving prosthetics.  Computers are now able to convert touch to actual feeling in the brain.  By using chips in the brain or in the arm they are able to bypass the injured areas or create direct links that can create the feeling of touch when the prosthetics touch something.
