Dean Kamen is currently the focus of a segment on Discovery HD called "DaVinci: Unlocking Genius". The program showcases current inventors who reflect the spirit of DaVinci.
I don't know if it's only on Discovery HD, or if it's on regular Discovery as well.
I turned it on halfway through it, but I caught part of a segment on the iBot, a neat segment on the Stirling engine (Dean has a 3kW generator in his basement being run by a stirling engine), and FIRST (footage from the Boston regional. I noticed PINK, and HYPER). Also some neat shots of Dean's machine shop.
It was pretty cool. For those who receive Discovery HD, I would check your schedules for the next airing. My cable provider shows tonight at 10-11PM, tomorrow from 2-3 AM, and tomorrow from 3-4 PM. all Pacific time.
