  • This gives me hope for the future. I love that this is being done.

  • i am surprised by this device. hope this will become available in the market.

  • This has worse visual acuity than the vOICe.

  • so sad :( war is pointless ordered by those who know will always be safe

  • Motherfucking wars and assholes that do them. They deprived this man of his sight and the motherfuckers that make wars are fine siting in their office recruiting more pones!

  • funrizman shut the hell up-silly? how ignorant a comment-it helps the guy-people talk in earphones now-thats silli

  • I hope he does well... but that just looks plain silly.

  • thats good i hope everything works out for him. hopefully in future they have better tech.. they will

  • Gee i hope this works it must really suck to lose sight after seeing EG hey mate is my missus HOT ????

  • i didnt get it

  • @GogghyTV its a camera that sees a lox res image of the world and a computer translates it to electrodes that are in the order of the pixels on the tongue so he feels the image on his tongue

  • cool

  • lol they already have devices they implant into your brain (in the part of your brain that makes you see) and they can let blind people see about 4 to 16 pixels and they are working on more... but yea you would have to get a brain implant.. i'd go for the tounge thingy.

  • @thepianoaddict but that's only for when the nerv is damaged :P you can also just get an eye implany :)

  • Hey, a soldier was blinded and is just getting his sight back, why not start an argument... Next you'll be arguin over a tribute video or saink, seriously... grow up and shut up...

  • Fuckusa3@ shut the fuck up he is a hero he saved millions so shut the fuck up I'll get ur mum to lick ur dick u fucking inbrede twat he is a hero and + u don't have a dick u fat cunt

  • Yet another form of cybertonics, tech is getting there. Just need to figure out if the fusion reactor is able to be stablelized(even after the experimental one was shut down) and we can finaly have a sorce of energy. I still believe that future tech in power genaration is still posible even after seeing what we have done so far. All we can do with some tech is keep going untill something works.

  • Wow! 

  • Why would you wish to use a tongue? WHY DONT YOU WORK WITH BRAIN COMPUTER INTERFACE TECHNOLOGY? Why Not Work Directly with the brain?

    Have you seen the mechanical arms for amputees? There is one design capable of using nerve impulses to precisely control a robotic arm for yourself. It works too and can make somone with arms, have arms again while be it robotic and not the kind with sensitivity. Scrap the Tongue and work with the important part of the body.Sorry your country lied about the war!!

  • @jamesandthegiantpea you might want to take the sight of your commanding officer and also take the sight of his general because they too are to blame, or you can say it was only your own fault. I say force the Generals to walk the line, force them to go to the newest battle and see how they fend SOLO. Yeah make your priministers do 30 years millitary before they can decide how to use your countries men as pawn in chess. Your like a toy for those above, its time to return order and eliminate them

  • on me tong m8 jajajaja

    thats what happen when you f*** with iraq

  • Excellent. Been waiting decades for this to get out of the lab.

  • Science what have you done?!

    nah this is cool, hope to get my robot body soon,

    Science FTW!

  • THE ARMY NEEDS YOU!

    warning: Joining the army can lead to permanent vision loss.

  • Brain tongue murderers intercepted.

  • all they want to say is go kill people if you loose your sight we have a solution otherwise why will they take a soldier as an example

  • i ate this new youtube layout ): it doesnt even have related videos >:O

  • I just noticed that the ratings show about 7% of people have rated this video thumbs down. That is rather funny. Did this video about a blind man regaining sight through technology offend these people?

    About the video itself, that is awesome. IThere is going to a major increase in this kind of innovative technology. I hope I live to see what the world will be like in a few decades.

  • @MarmaladeINFP It's not that, it's the video content. Its doesn't say anything about the device. It leaves the viewers clueless. All we know is a "device" that you see with your tongue?

  • @pntrain5 As I recall, a short explanation was given. They explained the basic mechanism by which it functioned. It was just a news report. I don't think they were trying to make a documentary or do investigative journalism.

  • @MarmaladeINFP

    i know right? I been arguing with this conspiracy theorist nutcase instead of making a actual comment.

  • FUCK AMERICAA

  • @Learner012 well fuck you right back.

    Love,

    America

  • Comment removed

  • @21evilgrizz hey America is dawn now it will be like what happen to Soviet Union after war with afrganistan it will be poor contry u will see that after few years because america is with devil u will see who will win devil or God

  • @bentleilalmohalhal Was that comment in English? Go back to school.

  • @TheArmy19D my english is not ur problem

  • Damn, the Europeans always using our melanin in their technology. SMH...

    Peace

  • i had an idea for a devise that could be worn on the waste that would emit sonic pulses at regular intervals so blind children could lean to see with their ears like bats

  • @lwanatt......... ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaha­hahahahahaha thanks for the lauph

  • @IamFreeRu the brain can adapt to some crazy shit, im pretty sure it would really work IF you could find all the right parameters for the sonic pulses, and the children would have to start wearing the device like 10 seconds after they popped onto the operating table

  • @lwanatt..... Sorry, I thought you were joking. I pictured it in my mind, and it was very funny. You should patent it and see where things lead.

  • @IamFreeRu it might look really funny if you needed artificial ear extensions to make ur ears shaped like bat ears =P

  • That, is cool. <3 It's amazing how out of the box some people are able to think. I sure as hell wouldn't have thought of being able to use your tongue as another way to "see" other then dogs or cane thingies. Lotsa win there.

  • Here's a better medical device: Prevention. Don't' participate in evil wars and you won't have to worry about things like this.

  • Yes because everyone who is blind participated in a war. *rolleyes*

  • @MormonPJesus: no but i believe "Peace940"s point is: everybody who makes the conscious decision to put themselves in harm's way, no matter what the reason, and gets injured in the process has nobody to blame but themselves.....for example, if you don't want to get electrocuted, you can reduce your risk by not becoming an electrician. Not everybody who gets electrocuted is an electrician.

  • Peace490's comment was still incredibly ignorant and potentially offensive

  • @TheyCallMeIndigo He said "Don't' participate in evil wars and you won't have to worry about things like this. ". It seems like he is saying that if you don't participate in a war, you don't have to worry about going blind. Which is kinda stupid if you ask me.

  • @MormonPJesus ... it seems to me like he's saying if you don't participate in a war, you won't go blind from an RPG attack.... however, his comment was truthful and, as i have family members in the service, i don't personally think it was ignorant or offensive, but that's just me.

    Peace and Love,

    -Indigo

  • I remember hearing about this and being completely confused as to how it works, but it seems to work out for him!

  • Poor dude :( but whoa O.O finally a device that can make blind people to see! Thats great news :D

  • What relevance does it have that he is a soldier?

  • idk maybe it wasd that he was blinded in battle.

  • That's pretty cool. But I bet it's uncomfortable and sucks to get used to.

  • are you guys seriously having a fight about what you belive in on a itnnews video?

  • lol :D

  • Freddie was one tough soldier remember seeing a Documentry on how he got injured in Iraq,got alot of respect for this guy even after losing his sight he refuses to let his disability hold him back,

    Goodluck on your Kilimanjaro charity climb bud

  • That's really amazing and useful technology.

  • poor guy...brave man

  • FU*KING ADS!

  • Awwe I like the Puppy!!! When it rested its head down it looked so cute!!! puppy!!

  • @gham619 Puppy!!

  • a common sight....haha i see what you did there

  • Soulja boy up in the hoe

  • im going to comment u

    i salute u my solija

  • how do the comments go from this dude to politics, STAY on topic, i mean its amazing that this guy has the chance to see again

  • amazing.

  • @7127795 You should check out my plate tectonics comment right below your Jesus mortal comment. Qur'an=FAIL

  • @88arau

    Jesus mortal comment haha

    nice.Very. Nice

  • Lucky dude, awsome dude

  • And He's Rock'n them Oakleys.

  • badass

    too fuckign bad this stuff never gets on the mainstream news, nothing news worthy is ever on any of the fucking news channels, makes me rage.

    only way to find stuff that is really worth finding out and looking into, is by looking for yourself, since all the major news channels suck major balls.

  • @MdNtNightmare

    So true it's all bad news now days. Best news you'll usually hear is some politcal crap about something which is about it.

  • so true

  • This technology rocks!

  • @mhunt05 Iraq and American imperialism is not worth this poor guy losing his sight.

  • @IcyScythe That is your opinion

  • @TheArmy19D I'd love to hear you say that if it'd been you who lost his eyes for the another nation's imperialist ambitions.

  • @IcyScythe It could have just as easily been me. Quit crying.

  • @TheArmy19D hey if you wanna risk your life for big oil be my guest.

  • @IcyScythe I thought I told you to stop crying?

  • i would hate it when i become blind. The world will be a darker place. DARKER place

  • war is never the anwser, but once war has been started, it must be finished.

  • @superEMOman1324 why is war never the answer?

  • inspiring story.

  • Wow... look at all these stupid atheist and religious trolls. Atheists. Do us all a favor; stfu and stop crying about religion. Religious people... just, just... shut up.

  • Fuck religion >:D

  • it's good to hear that a soldier fighting for his country against these middle eastern terrorists the middle east is a pretty nice area but a few wacked out terrorists ruined it's allure by fighting for a deranged leader I.E. Osama Bin Laden. (May he burn in hell)

  • @usarmymilitary

    Straight to the point good comment.

  • STFU religious retards

  • Wow, you guys have no fucking brain whatsoever. You're not even Muslim, yet so many of you here think you know everything. If it is bull, how does the Qur'an say that mountains and the land is firmly placed into the ground, when Plate Tectonics wasn't theorized until the 1940's? The Qur'an was written so many years before that? Are you telling me that Muhammad(a.s.) just made a lucky guess? Of course not. Allah told him.

  • First of all, plate tectonics isn't a theory its fact. And second, by bringing up plate tectonics, all you did was disprove yourself and scripture (Qur'an). The mountains and land are not firmly placed on this Earth but they float or glide over Earth's Mantle. Complete and obvious contridiction of the Qur'an...sorry but your comment doesnt make any sense!!!

  • @88arau plate tectonics is a theory

  • Your a homo and not worth explaining the philosophy of the Scientific Method. Quit sucking cok and go get educated.

  • @88arau lol you totally ownd sh4dowkill3r..good job!!

  • Its just a coincidence. You can look back all you want and say it was right, but please tell me something it says that hasn't been discovered yet.

  • quran :) allah :) mohammed :)

  • some animals see with their tongues.:)

  • UGH, awful and low-class accent! Poor soldier though, still revolutionary. It's almost as cool as the procedure of planting a chip in one's brain that is connected to a special camera that is "supposed" to give you a digital and visual picture of your surroundings.

  • He's an imposter, he makes dirty movies and was last seen at the nude beach.

  • ddd

  • teehee u did already nigwop :). keep going through with ur threats nigwop amigos. u type like u didnt chill out first nigwop. i automatically lost my sweet sense of humour.

  • wow poor dude. i feel so bad that he lost his sight in a war that shouldnt even have happened.

  • No war should ever happen! But it does and people like him are willing to make that sacrifice to make the world a better place! "I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country."- Nathan Hale.

  • cool story bro

  • @mhunt05 war should never happen? wow that is something you say in like 3rd grade war is inevitable and its a must for advances in technology, population control, and yields a boom in the economy when everyone on board

  • @fsubabyfan Dude are you kidding me? For one i'm a conservative and believe we should use our military might! Second I agree war is inevitable and im happy I live in the country that has the best military in the world! With that said NO sane person should wish for war! Human life is human life regardless how fucked up the enemy is! Still someones son, still someones father! Talk to one of our solders and ask them if war should ever happen and see what he says!

  • @mhunt05 stupid hippie.

  • Iraq is not worth this poor guy losing his sight.

  • @mhunt05 Iraq and American imperialism are not worth this poor guy losing his sight.

  • @IcyScythe we r getting oil and setting up a democracy and then leaving them be which is comporable to the teller amendment with puerto rico or the platt amendment with cuba but not all that similar so its not imperialism

  • The U.S. is not leaving Iraq. We're building a multi-billion dollar self-contained embassy complex in the heart of Baghdad.

  • @friedricemonster ok so we shouldnt retaliate for 9/11?

  • @fsubabyfan Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11

  • Pretty amazing technology, but people commenting on religion and hating religion your both sounding like hate mongers. Everyone just needs learn to be tolerant neither side is going away unfortunately, and thats true for every aspect in life. Just because you feel like something is bad doesn't give you the right to commit a crime against it.

  • simply amazing

  • Im blind and i wonder when this will be availible in the US, soon i hope. Its been really difficult living with out porn...

  • that is freakin' crazy. hope the tech improves soon. wild! all the best to ya mate.

  • LOONEY ON THE LOOSE

  • i saw a video about this when it was in development years ago. the stuff i saw went into detail about how they saw the tongue as closely related to transmiting information to the brain like the eyes, just in a different way. im suprised there arent more ppl testing this out by now. plus i dont really know how applicable this will be.. they can see with their tongue in a sense, but it requires a camera and a thing will always be in the mouth, and its slower like reading braile. brings hope though

  • hi-tech lolipop

  • Think with your dip stick , jIMMY!

  • although he can't see, he choose an oakley glasses. yeah!

  • Simply amazing

  • Did religion make device that helps blind people see? Nope, but science sure as hell did.

  • Wasnt it God Who was the One who created science, universe and the rules of logic like gravity and so?

    Wasnt it also God who GAVE humans the intelligence to read, write and create tools and inventions?

  • no?

  • @theincentburns How much psychological and spiritual support did science offer him? None? Only extremists on both sides of the issue think that religion and science are incompatible.

  • @theincentburns Is science not the invisible working of angels?

  • he should learn how to talk properly first

  • Pretty FUCKEIN FUNNY RIGHT!!!!!????? OMG your a fucken dick dude.....but if your a Shemale your a bitch!!! PERIOD...

  • Cool!

  • Gosh, this new design is hideous.

  • Why's a guy from the U.K doing In Iraq?

  • Have u heard about Iraq war?

  • Uhh U.K troops are our allies..Theres also Australian troops over there as well helping us

  • that is thoroughly awesome.

  • this is so cool

  • very cool =]

  • Oh my religious shet again on something not remotely close to it.

    nobody gives a shet about your sacred book, get over it.

  • lol eurofag

  • wow now dat wood be awesome to have

  • Awesome!

  • i want the walking dog!

  • thanks

  • That thing just brought eating pussy to a whole new level.

  • LOL

  • I use my penis as a walking cane.

    ps- one of my friends wrote this for me, im blind too.

  • this is pretty cool but actuall kind of old news, they had documentary on something like this on tv years ago

  • @DrWizardMan No one deserves anything like this

  • wow, thats impressive.

  • Wow, I have no idea how that works, but that's pretty awesome.

  • what's his accent?

  • British I think

  • Thx :]]

  • who needs dogs or canes? tongues r the future...

  • how about we take the dogs eyes and put them in the guy's lol

  • Very impressive indeed.

  • He can tongue my asshole and make me cum.

  • I thought this was a joke when i had read the title.

  • WOW! at first i thought this was a joke!

  • pour dog

  • pour dog what? im a grammar nazi. i know lol.

  • poor

  • That dog's not poor? He's a fine dog. I have a service dog, and he is a very happy dog.

    Service dogs go through training, and help the handicap. This does not hurt the dogs physical or emotion being at all.

  • poor?

  • @hongosenlaspatas

    he isnt !

  • sure technology made progress!

  • That's extraordinary i never knew such thing is even possible.

    Maybe your ears will make you see when you hear vibrations just like the movie Dare Devil. Who could have imagined this? Not me this is totally awesome.

    5 stars

    We are heading toward the future so quickly that is so awesome. Favorited.

  • it's only a little difficult to read the newspaper when you're eating i think,

    but awesome stuff,a sort of "tongue eye"
