I used to work in a lab that was DARPA funded. They are largely a funding agency that prioritizes and selects grant proposals for funding based on calls for proposals that they put out.

Yeah I wish everyone would stop demonizing DARPA, I've been around multiple projects that were doing very cutting edge and much needed equipment for the military.

We can thank DARPA for the Internet, GPS, Night Vision technology and a host of other great stuff (the cloud, windows, 3D printing).
