Incredible.
Apparently the military have funded much of this, as they're hoping that such techniques can be used with injured soldiers. I think that's fucking awesome. So often the big story is that soldiers have been let down, abandoned or disregarded after their service has been brought to a violent end.

D'Onofrio was also the creepy psychopath in The Cube. I have never been able to watch anything else he's in without thinking of scenes from that movie.
