Welcome to #9 Avatar Technology Digest. As always we bring you the latest news on Technology, Medical Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence from the most trusted sources. And here are the top stories of the last week.

1) Italian engineers have built a robotic arm, aimed at improving surgical operations and inspired by the octopus.
Just like its aquatic inspiration, the robotic tentacle has no rigid skeleton; it can bend, stretch and switch between flexible and rigid states as required.

2) Electronic memory may bring bionic brain one step closer.
Researchers at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology and the University of California, Santa Barbara claim to have constructed the world’s first electronic memory cell that effectively mimics the analog process of the human brain.

3) General Electric fires up fully 3D printed jet engine! It's not the first 3D-printed jet engine, but it has been fired and revved up to 33,000 RPM.

4) You might not know Yves Rossy by name, but there's a decent chance you've seen him before. We've seen this guy fly next to a B17 bomber, circle Mount Fuji, and soar over the Grand Canyon. But the man with the jetpack just released his most hair-raising video yet.
