(16 Aug 2006) BIONIC ARM MAN SOURCE: AP TELEVISION NEWS RESTRICTIONS: HORIZONS CLIENTS ONLY / NO ACCESS NORTH AMERICA LENGTH : 5.10 Dayton, Tennessee 20 July, 2006 1. Various of Jesse Sullivan using artificial limbs 2. Jesse Sullivan sitting down 3. SOUNDBITE: (English) Jesse Sullivan, "Electronic" Arm Recipient: "That's when he told me that if they moved the nerves into the chest muscle, that theoretically, I could operate a prosthetic. And, you know, didn't have anything to loose and everything to gain, so we decided to go on with it." Chicago, Illinois 10 August, 2006 4. Dr. Todd Kuiken and lab assistant 5. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr. Todd Kuiken, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago: "Having had done the surgery and have him recover and the first time we hook him up and he thought close hand, and his hand closed. And so that was very exciting." Dayton, Tennessee 20 July, 2006 6. Sullivan manipulating artificial arm (right arm is the "bionic" limb and the left one his normal artificial limb) UPSOUND: "And, all I'm doing is just like you, I'm just opening and closing my hand. Elbow down, elbow up. Close my hand, open my hand, I can twist the wrist and I can control the rotation of that wrist just by opening and closing my hand." Chicago, Illinois 10 August, 2006 7. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr. Todd Kuiken, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago: "The technique we've developed we call "targeted reinervation. And the idea is that although you may have lost your arm, the nerves going to the arm are still there, they're just no longer connected to your muscle and skin. And, it's the nerves that contain all the information you need. But how do you get to that information? Well, the approach we're using is to take those nerves and transfer them to spare muscle and skin." Dayton, Tennessee 20 July, 2006 9. Sullivan using his artificial limb 10. Sullivan picks up an ash tray Chicago, Illinois 10 August, 2006 11. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr. Todd Kuiken, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago: "So, when he thinks close hand the nerve makes this piece of muscle contract and we can pick up electrical activity when the muscle contracts using little electrodes like these. We then use that signal to have a computer to tell his hand to close. So he thinks close hand, and his hand closes." Dayton, Tennessee 20 July, 2006 12. Jesse Sullivan picking up a napkin 13. SOUNDBITE: (English) Jesse Sullivan, "Electronic" Arm Recipient: "I had to learn how to lift the elbow without making the hand open or close. So, those nerves are so close in there that they will, one will give the other one, if you close too hard, it will make the elbow jump a little, or if you lift the elbow too hard it will make the hand pop open, but the way they talk with the technology they have, that the computer will learn to recognise what I'm trying to do rather than me trying to figure out what the arm wants to do." Chicago, Illinois 10 August, 2006 14. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr. Todd Kuiken, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago: "So, this technology allows you to do it naturally. You think close hand, your hand closes as well as at the same time. Jesse can move his elbow and open and close his hand at the same time. So, it allows for simultaneous control. And then this enables him to do the things he does at home, including painting his fence and doing housework, and working around his yard and picking things up. That's what this technology enables, a more full life." Dayton, Tennessee 20 July, 2006 15. Sullivan painting his house using electronic arm 16.
