◆ Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) investing $71.2 millioninto Revolutionizing Prosthetics 2009 (RP2009) Pgm
◆ Objective: Let amputees do what most people take for granted:- make gestures, test the water in a teacup,- turn a key, even peel the shell off an egg.
◆ As a result of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan,# amputees = 1214 on Aug. 1, 2008, compared with 4809 deaths and 33,116 injuries
◆ Ratio of amputations to deaths roughly twice as highas in any previous war.

The DEKA Arm“Affectionately dubbed “Luke” (after Luke Skywalker), the robotic arm is a DARPA funded project intended to restore functionality for individuals with upper extremity amputations.”See http://www.dekaresearch.com/innovations/And FDA approves the DEKA arm in 2014http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/182202-fda-approves-the-deka-arm-the-first-commercial-mind-controlled-prosthetic-armAnd the 60 Minutes segment: “Creating the bionic arm” in April 2009https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rloSSqiUCM
