Dean Kamen previews prosthetic arm

[Sunshine]

This is awesome!

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.

I am currently working in Afghanistan in support of the War Fighters stationed here. I am so pleased to see that Dean is supporting the same soldiers from the thing that he does so well. I just want to thank Dean from all the soldiers in service for our country that gives us the freadom to do the things we do best. That is to help our fellow sevice members in any way we can. WAY TO GO DEAN.
