Dean Kamen: New prosthetic arm for veterans


 
   

http://www.ted.com - Inventor Dean Kamen previews the extraordinary prosthetic arm he's developing at the request of the Department of Defense, to help the 1,600 "kids" who've come back from Iraq without an arm (and the two dozen who've lost both arms). Kamen's commitment to using technology to solve problems, and his respect for the human spirit, have never been more clear than in this deeply moving clip.

The more i view this the more i feel that we are going to be in a new age of computer and robitic technology that we just might be considered robotic ourselves.

there are many different ways....it goes case-by-case. It is very flexible and can be outfitted per individual

You people? And your comment is stupid, when somebody loses a limb, it is NEVER their fault and they don't deserve it.
