It's not so much that DARPA takes these ideas and turns them into actual working things, but they take what they have learned from these products and apply them to what we already have or are working on. Science fiction has always thought ahead of what is possible - in that way, it's purpose is the same as DARPA's. Again, very few of their things actually come to fruition, but many of the defense (and civil) technologies that we currently use owe their very existence to the craziness of DARPA.
