Technology in Star Wars : ウィキペディア英語版 | Technology in Star Wars
The space opera blockbuster Star Wars borrows many real-life scientific and technological concepts in its settings. In return ''Star Wars'' has depicted and inspired/influenced several futuristic technologies in existence and under development. While many of these technologies are in existence and in use today, they are not nearly as complex as seen in ''Star Wars''. Some of these technologies are not even considered possible in modern times. However, many of the technologies depicted by ''Star Wars'' parallel modern real-life technologies, though with significant differences, but still using the same concepts. ==Prosthetics==
Prosthetics was first seen in ''Star Wars'' in the fifth film of the saga (though produced second by date) ''Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back''. This technology seen in the films bears an almost absolute resemblance to natural limbs in terms of size, shape and movement as well as other body parts save for the distinctive material they are made of compared to the organic material of the natural limbs and other organs they replace. Such precision is not considered possible by current technological means, however the ability for prosthetics to produce feeling has become closer to reality according to recent research and development conducted at the Case Western University which produced prosthetic limbs similar to the ones seen in ''Star Wars''. Another similar production even closer to natural organic limbs known as the DEKA Arm System and dubbed as "The Luke" after Luke Skywalker's prosthetic arm was approved for mass production by the US Food and Drug Administration after eight years of testing and development.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Star Wars-style robotic arm approved for mass production )〕
