DARPA's no stranger to bionic limb research, however two new projects under
the agency's RE-NET program focus on improving amputees' link to their
prosthetics. RE-NET aims to develop the technology that will connect
artificial limbs to existing nerves and muscles. Once that's achieved, users
will be able feel with the prosthetic as well as move it as they would a real
arm or leg, unlike another project focused on one-way control.
