Man Gets Thought-Controlled Bionic Arm
Forget all that military stuff, the real question is: How long until you can control Serato Scratch with your mind??
Double amputee uses thought-controlled arm
msnbc
Jesse Sullivan has two prosthetic arms, but he can climb a ladder at his house and roll on a fresh coat of paint. He’s also good with a weed-whacker, bending his elbow and rotating his forearm to guide the machine. He’s even mastered a more sensitive maneuver — hugging his grandchildren.
The motions are coordinated and smooth because his left arm is a bionic device controlled by his brain. He thinks, “Close hand,” and electrical signals sent through surgically re-routed nerves make it happen.
Doctors describe Sullivan as the first amputee with a thought-controlled artificial arm....

Yup.
He announced it on Thursday. And he's on the cover of Entertainment weekly which hit newstands this week.
He said it was the worst retirement in history.
He's supposed to drop an album this fall.
Don't really know how I feel.
Of course I wish him the best.
