Hugh Herr--the guy who patented this--is a fascinating guy. I've heard him speak several times and had the chance to meet him. He's a bilateral amputee and has constructed a range of prosthetic devices.
Definitely some of my favorite work from the MIT Media Lab folks. Really important stuff from a guy very passionate about making it.
