Re: Kamen/DARPA's Bionic Arm on Video
Nice job! I am on an undergraduate research team right now that's trying to figure out a mechanism that will further improve upon the control of that prosthetic.

I'm curious as to whether this prosthetic is EEG or EMG controlled and I would like to see some of the sensor array and processing algorithms used in this prosthetic. We're not copying DEKA--we're just trying to see where they are struggling and hopefully find a niche within that. PS: Does DEKA give out grant money to undergraduate teams and how might we be able to apply for it?
