I get how this is progressive and all, but poor cockroach!!! I'm glad you at least care to anesthetize it a bit. *sigh* I suppose someone has to do it. No pain no game.
I'd say this kind of research has potential in the field of medicine. Perhaps one day a similar approach could be taken to create prosthetics that can make it so you can feel what you touch with them. However, I can't help but feel sorry for that roach... Oh well, I guess it's the circle of life. Besides, bugs seem to find ways to cope with lost appendages quite quickly.
So they are still alive and react to the applied neural interface. At first I thought it was dead and the eletronical device was to control its body giving eletric impulses as it was mechanical. I saw too many cyborg movies.
@SoniXtheOnly Thank God you are here to save us. I am sorry to see you were forced to watch this video and unable to simply go somewhere else. How can they show such things that happen all the time in universities and research labs? How dare these "idiots" try and advance technology that is so obviously never going to contribute in any useful manner to civilization.
@SoniXtheOnly Yes, it is OK. How can you say it has nothing to do with research, when the video is by a professor who teaches this to his students? I believe your previous statement is the stupid one.
Even if he is professor it has nothing to do with research.
Do you also think Nazi doctors were human researchers as they gave LSD to innocente humans as long as they died?
This is just animal cruelty. Why do you think they use roaches? Because 'everybody' hates them and nobody will cry. People like him think there is a difference between animals but there isnt. . Its life-despising.
But maybe you let me implant electrodes in your brain? Then i could give you electroshocks and you will also turn around like i want it. It would be fun for me.
People who do such things to animals, should be shoot instantly. We dont need such people here on earth. We already have enough idiots. And we dont need such vids. Did you ever thought about decency and morality? You ever thought about pain? I wish I could implant you such things in your brain.
@TheAluminiumklorid. It's a 2032 watch battery underneath the circuit. Newer RoboRoach versions use a 1220 battery that's lighter and goes on top of the circuit.
It's to teach about neural interfaces, microelectronics, and learning/adaptation. We've begun distributing them; most users are high school or college teachers who teach neural engineering.
This is not the cartoon i used to watch as a kid...

that's so interesting. I mean for both video and people's reactions to it. It had been done for the sake of science, get over it.

You have to remove the leds. Otherwise it just a cockroach running from the light, which is pretty obvious.
I so glad we don't have these nasty things in europe.

Because others do it it is now okay or what? Thats a really stupid statement.
Also this vid here has nothing to do with research. The creator of the vid is just sick, unfortunately.
