  • epic robot hand is epic

  • Every youtube video got like one high rated comment about Minecraft. I love it!

  • Terraria > Minecraft > Deep holes > Deepest living fish > Robotic hand that feels real > ???

  • automail fom Full Metal Alchemist? bout fricken time

  • Man the amount of calculation, time, and effort that went into making that must have been insane. Thank god I don't design medical tools.

  • Honesty. For what reason would you dislike this video?

  • id just squash it

  • @lolmadkid22

    I don't care what got you here.

  • or masturbate like never before?!

  • @MyDemonJester No, instead it will be installed with an anti pedo device, ever grab you penis, squishing time! >:D

  • One question left.. Can i jerk off with it?

  • @xAxBeVaNxBx Well if you can't then what's even the point of a robotic arm?

  • what if u spilt water on it, electrocuted

  • Minecraft got me here? o.o

  • @lolmadkid22 minecraft gets you everywhere lol

  • @AyeVongola I see that. :D

  • @lolmadkid22 :D

  • @lolmadkid22 LOL and me

  • How about connecting it to his nerve endings so his brain can sense it?

  • YES!! Now this is revolutionary.

  • @alexrocks37

    you are an idiot

  • i think of luke skywalker

  • omg they coulldnt get someone that sounded american to do this segmant

  • @alexrocks37 Couldn't you get someone who types in American to write your comment? (By the way, you spelled "couldn't" and "segment" wrong, missed several punctuation marks, and didn't capitalize properly.)

  • @ShallowThoughts 'types in American'? I honestly hope you're joking.

  • > grip an object without squashing it

    I guess the amputees will have to...

    get a grip

    A-YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHH

  • I find this hard to masturbate to, kiddddiiinggg

  • Wear sheepskin gloves and you can pretend you live in New Zealand

  • @crocodile2006 hahahahaha

  • some dam star wars shit right thar

  • the beginning reminded me of the cover of Wish you were here album by Pink Floyd

  • how would you wank like?

  • I disturb myself sometimes This just gave me an idea for the perfect torture method.

    Do this trick on someone and stick lots and lots of needles and blades into a rubber hand.

    Hilarity ensues, No evidence will be present, because you never actually harmed them at all.

  • @DGneoseeker1

    In these studies the person doesn't actually feel pain that the false limb does. They just build an association with that limb and MILD sensation (ie: tingling) can sometimes be felt. When the needle is put into the hand, the person feels aprehension, but no pain.

  • @Gabberz123  Ah, that makes more sense!

  • Don't Jack-Off!

  • it could come really handy ! =P

  • That would be nice to masturbate with

  • automail comes to mind.......

  • AUTOMAIL!!

    that is all

  • To everybody who says war does not help the economy.. look at the united states after WWI and WWII, after each was a period of huge economic expansion. The reason we are not seeing this today is because most of our equipment is from like the 70's.

    When the government.. say... buys a tank.. it takes people to make that tank... and those people get paid... and people getting paid buy things... and people who sell things to those people who just bought things also get paid. And those people...

  • @krap101 What the heck are you talking about?

  • @S1lentStr1ke I was explaining why large wars where your infrastructure remains intact is usually followed by times of economic prosperity

  • @krap101 actually we owe internet to war... :)

  • @lpperalta1 The actually part of your "actually we owe internet to war" implies that I said that we don't owe internet to war :P. Also GPS, Planes, Computers, agriculture... basically everything on some level owes itself to war.

  • @krap101 oh, I didnt want to sound like that, I just tried to support your comment.

    Some times I find it difficult to express myself in english, sry :P

  • @lpperalta1 That's fine. I'm just used to youtube trolls and try my hardest to put them in their place :P

  • @krap101 Also Nazis made the world (jet planes and stuff.).

  • @Starioshka And Tesla. The modern world was created by Nazis and Tesla.

  • @TwistedLemniscate Oh, a comrade which understands the truth :D

  • why is it so slow god we're not going to get anywhere with slow hands like these

  • Anakin, your hand must be missing because it's over here!

  • I wonder if they can make one that is much faster. For someone that takes karate, or someone in the military who happens to lose one of their limbs. I agree with @Blakheart69 the government should fund such technology like this. But apparently they are so corrupt that they can't see the good in things.

  • LUKE SKYWALKER

  • how they gonna have sex  lol

  • @JayKayIAm

    not with their hands...I don't think anyone does

  • @JayKayIAm what the hell?

  • @orlyf00l sorry this comment wasnt me...my brother likes to mess around with my account

  • @JayKayIAm bahahahaha lol cool cool hah

  • "without squashing it" lol XD

  • STUMP.

  • i wanna feel one

  • dont they connect it to your muscles or is this a different type?

  • hmm..interesting

    

  • Es muy buena la intencion de los ingenieros en robotica , para crear manos artificiales , pero algo que aun no cuadra es porque tiene que tener movimientos tan poco naturales y lentos , estamos en una era tecnologica muy avanzada en control de seniales , motores de gran velocidad y de poco consumo .... ojala algun dia alcancen el desarrollo de la fluidez del movimiento humano .

  • i need a robot hand D:.. horible accident.

  • I pray to god that one day i can have a real arm ..

  • An amputation hand job!

  • Reminds of the end of Empire Strikes Back when Luke is fitted with his new hand.

  • Reminds me of the film See No Evil "Do you think he jerks off with his claw?"

  • @David1531992 ha ha ha ha thats funny

  • i dunno...probably rip my dick off...

  • LMFAO

  • Reminds me of Terminator 2

  • Ahhhh~~~ Fullmetal Alchemist made possible =)

  • can that robot arm give good hand jobs??? I think not!

  • give its 10 years and we will have the technology

  • @ryans32123 we have the technology now, theres just not alot of funding

  • 2 camels in a tiny car

  • Five gorillas.

  • This is great news! I love science!

  • @mallardhead i love science, except for the large poinless collider.

  • i have a robot arm. it can crush rocks into diamond

  • Would it give me the same sensation like the real one when I'm masturbating?

  • you would probably rip your c**k off

  • @CAEDUSII thats why you practice on a hot dog first :D

  • Comment removed

  • They got this but only for the soldiers and stuff like that. I don't know why they don't put it out for the public it will really come great help to the disable, instead of wasting so much money on our soldiers that I just saw they explode cows and crap. I know I would like to have some fun but damn get some for the disable!

  • Comment removed

  • Thermal crush to left hand CAN I STRAP thiis on to missing idex amputated at wrist but dr.s left index muscel in middel i vant to play paino and lead GUITAR again insyead of

  • I feel your pain

    hopefully there will be a way you get a new index

  • it pretty make fashioned that artificial limb dont feel this there advantage and disadvantage of it if have a robotic hand i dont want to feel cold or hot given that would be unnecessary for the propose of the limb it a replacement no to simulate touch but it could be useful in the future prehaps

  • Well think about it. If Pros and Cons are opposites then Progress and Congress starts to really make sense. And that's why they won't fund it.

  • @JcXtreme72 well played, sir :D

  • Why doesn't the government fund shit like this? This is something really useful >.>

  • Because it would be useful... dont ask!

  • @Blakheart69 From what I understand, it is funding this kind of research for people who lose limbs during war.

  • @Blakheart69 Because it... does.

  • @Blakheart69 they're too busy funding war.. its more fun -_- (Irony)

  • @dumbo2021 but if they didn't keep sending troops out to fight and get limbs blown off, then they wouldn't have a need for the robotic prosthetic limb dept >.< (double irony)

  • @droberts4168 lmao nice one.. but still, war isnt the only reason we need such things.

  • @Blakheart69 they all too busy telling lies and looking for new ways to blow shit up

  • @Blakheart69 because we are at war thanks to a certain cunt face

  • @Cookmonster789 the government saw the economic down fall comming thats why we are at war. wars make money but takes lifes....not a good trade i think

  • @Insane82chevy oh yea, buying ammo and guns for millions of people just to die and leave there seems like a good profit. we also waste armor, grenades and oil for tanks and planes.very profitable. war doesn't show who is right, only who is left

  • @Cookmonster789 who's going to make all that stuff? millions of dollars a day is being put back in to the economy. you forget that most industrys in the u.s. will in some way make something for the war effort. why do you think we have a war every other decade of some kind? its a stimulus package that helps more then one country. why do you think oil prices went back down?

  • @Insane82chevy That's not how economics work. War CAUSES national debt because the money goes to funding the war machine. The money is put into corporations, many of which are foreign, it does not go back into the economy right away.

    Oil Prices and the war were completely separate. We couldn't get as much oil, and thus the price went up until we could afford more (thanks to the raised prices), which is when it began to stabilize.

  • @Mandolinpossum have you ever bought a new car? you have a brand new car but your making payments on it. thats about what war is like and when your done making payments on the car you have a 5 year old car you can drive for 15 years. our economy is the car. we pay off the debt and our economy is stable for about 15 years afterwards.

  • @Insane82chevy I don't think you have any idea what you're talking about, do you?

    Buying a car =/= buying 10,000 tanks, supplying 2,000,000 soldiers, and fueling 100,000 vehicles. The money is gone, the money goes to the corporations which the government buys the vehicles, fuel, and supplies from. The government does not have that money and thus we are indebted to those companies, and the more we buy the deeper in debt we become. War is not some magical device that stabilizes the economy.

  • @Insane82chevy Not to mention, it takes a bit longer than five years to pay off a 20 trillion dollar deficit.

    And it only stabilizes afterwards because we are no longer in a war. War has no part in stabilizing an economy.

  • @Blakheart69 Because the British government is controlled by what the majority of people want (democracy) , and the majority of people are stupid.

  • @Blakheart69 well they don't have any budgets.

  • @Blakheart69 they do they just keep it to themselves we are not worthy of the technology we pay to develop. who knows what the government is capable of now.

  • heh. for FMA fans were not far from automail

  • this is awesome! soon there won't be such a thing as a physically handicapped person! there'll only be cyborgs! this is what we should be spending our money towards. We are soooo close!

  • he he he i cant wait i want one just to know what its like to have a hand

  • I want one for my daily jerkoff.

  • stump...lol

  • while touching their stump LOL

  • i wonder if there is a real reason why robots have not progressed what so ever in at least 15 years or are they just being a bunch of dildos

  • yeah I reckon most of the effort has been put into making robotic dildos LOL

  • if that was the case by now the technology would be ancient :-D

  • how do they make stuff like that??!!

  • robot: arms, legs and intelligence...

    BWAH SKYNET MUST BE PUT OFFLINE!

    lawl governator.

  • lulz

  • Yes but I think, they must see the robot arm. I dont think they feel enything if they dont know they're touching it.

    Anyway its still a verry usefull ting.

  • This is such a great discovery.. i mean really people can have what they are missing again

  • And just think, in 50 years or so they will be selling these in your local adult toy store.

  • didn't these people see TheTerminator?

  • and i will destroy all cyborge it will happen i guess,.. the robots will be king of our planet but i destroy all robots

  • This video just shows how incredible the human body is, naturally it does what we cant use robots to do

  • awsome, in the futer there will be terminators

  • and they all will look like arnold in the govinators honor

  • hehehe

  • Still waiting for a terminator arm... : P

  • what if you are in a fight and your going to punch a guy, then it takes like forever to twist your hand... or if your playing paintball then it takes forever to squeeze the trigger :P

  • and what about playing the piano?

  • wait a second! what if u fell of a bridge and u had to grasp the bridge! but ur robo hand is the only one that has a chance to grab it! u go for it! u hit the edge and ur thinking "YES!" but then ur fingers start curling around the bridge, slowly. and before they are done u fall to ur death D: D: D:

  • but how could you make it so that they control it?

  • It's been done (if it's not already a fairly common if expensive operation) - they attach electrodes to the nerve endings of the stump and I guess you can figure out the rest.

  • Why are robots so god damn slow? Speed that shit up. Come on.

  • Hahah xD

  • Haha I was just thinking the same! ;D It takes forever to grab anything with that hand!

  • Imagine how long that would take you to ma-.. ehh nevermind. ^^

  • @maulcs i kno right!!! fuckin retarded or sumthin

  • @maulcs Because they use servo motors and not atrificial muscles they are quick

  • Ladies and gentlemen...Humanity has officially created its replacement species for the distant future.

    5,000 years from now, robot parents will tell robot children tales of "The Organics" who once plagued this world like a virus, before it was eradicated for the good of the universe.

  • You watched too much Battlestar Galactica :P

  • coming from the guy that's insulting someone over the internet over of a joke.

  • Not insulting just stating a fact. But I suppose you're saying who ever uses the internet has no life.

  • No. im saying that who ever INSULTS someone over the internet over a joke has no life.

  • Technically you made an insult saying people who make insults on the internet have no life. So I'm guessing you have no life for insulting people that insult?

  • NO i said that someone has no life if they insult someone over the internet OVER A JOKE.

    i wasn't insulting over a joke.

    GF

  • You were still insulting others who insult.
