[link to news.sciencemag.org] Article Credit: Collinger et al., The Lancet, Early Online Publication (17 December) A 53-year-old woman paralyzed from the neck down by a genetic neurodegenerative condition has learned to manipulate a robotic arm with her thoughts, researchers report today in The Lancet. In the video above, she uses the arm to remove plastic cones stacked on a base and restack them one by one on another base. Surgeons had implanted two 4x4-millimeter grids of hair-thin electrodes in her brain to capture signals from regions involved in planning hand and arm movements.... just watched her on the news... amazing....

Very awesome. I am kinda against animal testing, but this would not have happened the way it did, or as quickly as it did. Hopefully, scientists and engineers responsible for animal testing do so in a truly humane & loving manner. Hopefully they choose to work with animals who are already afflicted with these disabilities. |

Citizen, Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20541213 Did you know, the new film, The Hobbit. It has robotics used in it. I haven't seen it yet but I like the author of the book. So...it's not the Star Wars type animation. animatronics.. used to give children a giggle.. yup.. +5 steps... and known all along.... It's life as we know it, but only just.

Quoting: BRIEF  Brief, you know that a simple clutch would almost eliminate the possibilities of such an occurrence. True, I guess once they prove it's safe they could make all sorts of attachments for it too, the Flesh-right hand and so on :) Nuke the Muzzies! With freedom comes responsibility.
