Last year, I remember seeing a television show about a biomechanical suit that the military is building.  My brother has never been able to walk and I remember thinking how he needs something like that, now I do.  The suit is to allow a soldier to carry hundreds of pounds into battle.  This technology is extremely knew and I am sure that it would not hit the private sector until it is to late for me.  It is like the suit that was worn on the movie, "Aliens", if you remember that movie.
