Although there is a fair bit of focus on differently-abled people in the developed nations, the cost of replacing lost limbs with inovative, specifically designed components is either unavalible or very expesive (leading to unavalible again). The focus of this team to enable many people to work on refining designs used only by a small number of people is greatly needed. While it may not impact a large number of people, the people it does impact will see a large improvement over what they could have received in the past. I can also see this benefitting the lest developed nations in the trickle down effect, with better designs being offered sooner to those with less resources.
