Creating The Bionic Arm

[SteevDragon67]

Amazing!

[imreallyjin]

just amazing.

[HAYSQ]

If you can move an arm just by thinking, then you can wirelessly control some kind of device just by thinking !! holy crap

[RAC22963]

so we DO have the technology.

[scv25]

call it auto-mail :)

[andres33147]

wow how awesome how cool right on i have no words hahahahah to express my self i hope they make this better and continue to fix it

... Scientists have found genes which can regrow tissues repairing the body of damage such as this. Look up gene p21 which is the gene responsible for holding off our human potential to self heal. When this gene was "shut off" by scientists in lab mice, they could regrow tissues, limbs and self cure paralysis. Mech limbs are not "humane progress", "American tax dollar gift to the world" MY ASS. Invest in regenerative medicine, and truly help ALL of humanity from a host of different ailments!

[TheMedievalMan]

Yay... wasted tax dollars for emotional driven "progress". Now instead of spending money on soon-to-be-outdated technology like bionic limbs. Instead we would do better spending that money on medical advancements like regenerative medicine that could actually REGROW entire limbs. Imagine being able to cure paralysis, brain damage, limb loss, blindness, hearing damage, face reconstruction all from regenerative medicine. China is ahead of the U.S. in stem cell research...

[saadamiens]

In 9:54 , can someone explain me why the hell he wears shoes !!!!!!!!!!!

[ROFLCOPT3R90210]

@saadamiens my guess would be to keep it clean.. very expensive piece of equipment.

[3percentmilk]

@saadamiens

Because he's not an animal.

[HAYSQ]

@saadamiens cuz the shoes help balancing ! and it must be part of the system

[eville62]

thats so kool, amazing work. Now if man can only stop wars!

[noobking111]

American kids really don't know how good they have it. even Americas poorest people are recher than a lot of the world. plus Thes people have forever changed there lives for freedom. God blesse them.

[eSSpressionless]

thumbs up if you just love modern technolegy

[renegatt]

Stupid US gov spends 12 000 000 000 $ monthly for their little unnecessary wars. If those sick fucks spend this money for research like this we have totally bionical body in next year

[SamNicJohn]

100 Mill is good, but didn't we just spend over 1 Trill for the bailout? Thats 1 000 times more. Seems like our priorities are at the wrong places. We should invest in more things like this, in the NASA. The USA should actually MAKE things (instead of huge banks and playing in the stock exchange). We have the power to bring the next scientific revolution, but we are too lazy and stupid to actually do anything USEFUL with are resources. Its our last chance, otherwise china will pass us!

[monsterdare]

any bionic penis?

[lostinseganet]

@monsterdare Its in the works I think that they have attached prototypes on rabbits.

[martinlarsen20]

or... bionic dildo..

[lostinseganet]

@martinlarsen20 I am sure someone in japan in conjuncture with America is getting right on that.

[noobking111]

@monsterdare if you loss your dick. I don't think life will be worth living.

6:59 ~ 4th icon from the bottom on the far right - Hello Firefox!

[nintendomaniac64]

@nintendomaniac64 err... far left.  I can't believe I messed that up -_-

[lawdegraff]

these high tech prosthetics actually look cool. it reminds me of the terminator

[indalecio21]

Once,i though that if i ever lose a hand or leg in an accident i would rather suicide myself...Looking at this technology...and in the progress that it will have in the following years...I think that in the future some people may chop of their limbs voluntarily...

[wtfmanicanthaveaname]

this is the kind of thing that i dont think anybody would complain about their tax dollars going to. Way to go DARPA, tax dollars at good work! these people sacrifice their lives and they shouldnt have to live with a hook or still plastic leg with the technology we have. About fuckin time we started to do something for these kids (Real life action/super hero's)

[wtfmanicanthaveaname]

stiff, not still plastic leg.

[jerkjerkin]

i think the arm was great

[yellowsnow65]

Whats with the dog at 2:39?

[Temoneyz]

haha 9:04!!! he misses his mouth like 8 times and yes i know im going to hell for making fun of a dude with no arm....

[Furantastic]

No you're right, that dolt doesn't deserve the grape he barely placed in his mouth. He should lose a leg.

[yellowsnow65]

Wow your an asshole. It's a Prosthetic arm, dick-weed, and its not completely finished.

You should lose you life.

[temporary1121]

we should take his arms off hehe

[Temoneyz]

woah i wouldnt go that far at all dude. i just thought it was funny that he missed his mouth....

[Truth4Power]

@Temoneyz

Wow, according to your profile, your 37yrs old and you found it funny that a man with an experimental prosthetic arm missed his mouth?

Uh yeah, we don't need you.

Who is 'we'?

Your job, the country, the world...

Whatever 'we' you can come up with.

We don't need you.

[Shadow022393]

I wonder how much this arm will cost?

[yellowsnow65]

I'm guessing a lot.

It must cost a lot in production.

[shain02]

wat if you used brain wve sencors to control the arm? don't they put the little cord things on your head to do somthing? or perhaps thay could connect the sencors to the nerves in the arm so that you can move them eisier and more accurately?

[masterpiraka]

"a good arm has never been within their grasp"

Baroom-ching.

[IHATEMAC]

in 30-40 years, loosing an arm does not matter, they will for sure build in some feeling sensors in the whole arm so that u can feel and control it with ur brain.

[TWINZITO]

God has nothing to do with this man made machine. What happens when one of these people decide to do rob a bank?No fingerprints. And what happens when they flip out and decide to put that machine around your neck? Im just curious. Dont envoke GOD into this, unless your talking about ZUES,OR SATAN. There are many Gods within the earth. Bless you

[ranger250250]

your crazy !!! but seriously i have seen the movie transformers, and their power levels are through the roof !! we non cyborgs or "normies" have to stick together unless we want the whole world turning into a giant battery or something. god bless

[7notsolucky]

yeah ok... so they rob a bank, police have many other ways to find u. and even though u got real arms u can get gloves to cover your fingerprints. u call urself a man of god ("bless you"), and u continue to think negatively, thinking ppl will just use their prosthetic arm for no good. well its not like ppl with real arms dont do that. only ppl that think bad (like you) do such things, its not the machinery.

[hdroid0326]

your idiot twinzito. what if you loose your arms. what you gonna do?

[masterpiraka]

lol. downvoted -5 for speaking your mind. That's what you get with religion.

[wheeliehome]

Well what happens if a person with real arms wear gloves on their hands you idiot how do you find them? Dont be so stupid people wouldnt lose their arms if your great god protected them

[Ahadi12345]

There very good inventions, god bless those people.

[skeyes986]

I had no idea we were this far along in this type of technology. Awesome.

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

Soon enough you get your arm blown off in battle and instead of getting a ticket home with a plastic arm you get a robot one and thrown right back into the fray. They each have their pros and cons, it would really depend on the individual and their willingness to sacrifice their body to become a cyborg super soldier...
