Virus Battery

[Birgler14]

did i see some alpha complementation there?!

[MechaLuigi3000]

Whatever happens with those batteries if they explode and start infecting people with a side effect from many times recharged and start turning people into zombies-like radiated flesh eaters, i swear i will blame all of you that made those damn batteries for it... But also give ya credit if it happens like in my 3rd year in high school...

fuck youtube adds

[iv81]

viruses dont have DNA's it's called RNA. Video fail

[proverb311031]

@Fireblaze63 They spray these same viruses on our food!

[AdvancedGamer52439]

@Fireblaze63 ok Kool lol. I thought they were just regular viruses.

[proverb311031]

@imstillstanding2036 Why does this Remind me of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within? They used oval packs to contain the energy that they to created from Bio-Etheric Energy to power everything

[proverb311031]

Why does this Remind me of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within? They used oval pack to create Bio-Etheric Energy to power everything

[AdvancedGamer52439]

Ok then a little kid buys a ipod or something that is powered by virus energy and he drops it and the battery opens and millions of viruses go in the air and gets inhailed by other people and they get sick or die.

[iamnotvaio]

shh, we don't need your crazy conspiracy theories here. Go back to your moon landing blogs if you will.

[dinmagic]

You're crazy...

[paulgregs2006]

wow 2 think a battery that will last forever lol

[djbk7456]

what if the batterie brakes and the virus escapes and you get sick

[creepyblueeyes]

man im actually bored of readign this post because of all the pointless techno fear and missinterpretation of information all there talking about is using viruses which assemble the batterys, if there is one thing natuee cna do its build stuff, spiders can make a thread stronger than steel (pound for pound) silkworms can create some of the softest thread on earth and there are even deepsea worms which can create bulletproof goo so i say this is the most logical next step in material production

[Casil3as]

is this video old or something now a days the only thing i use that uses batteries is my remote control lol everything is rechargeable

[creepyblueeyes]

dude what do you think you are recharging. Ipods and Mobile Phones have a built in rechargeable battery they are talking about using genetically modifies viruses to build stuff (imagine if you told people in the 80's or 70's about this stuff they'd shit themselves

[Casil3as]

ohhhh lol thanks for explaining

[creepyblueeyes]

any time

[thedruglord]

@creepyblueeyes haha if watchmen were real then it ain't so amazing really. Virus batteries look like peanuts next to Dr Manhattan

[MyNameCookie]

Crazy scientists...

[NtlgntNrg]

Because of crazy scientists you are sitting there in your room and typing this crazy comments and so many other things all around you that you are dependent on them...

[CamperMovie95]

smart

[superman559cali]

Short Term = Sell A lot of batteries

Long Term = Will Not Sell enough because people will not have to buy any more.

[Zaekk]

People never break things, they said that the batteries could be charged an infinite amount of times, a better technology will never come out and they won't improve upon this one.

IF YOU CANNOT TELL THAT I WAS BEING SARCASTIC; THIS IS ME TELLING YOU I WAS BEING SARCASTIC.

[superman559cali]

Are you trying to be funny or something?

[Zaekk]

I don't try, I do.

[Zaekk]

Error: sarcasm =/= sarcasim.

Error: question without a question mark.

Error: saying there is sarcasm when there isn't.

[superman559cali]

Lol your funny.

I laugh at gay fags.

[Zaekk]

HOMOPHOBE

[superman559cali]

faggot

[Zaekk]

I report u

[superman559cali]

i do not care

your a pussy

[Zaekk]

You clearly meant "you're" not your.

[superman559cali]

Yes i did mean you're a Faggot. Thank you faggot

[Zaekk]

You're welcome homophobe. I must also indicate that you didn't capitalize 'I' in "Yes i did".

[superman559cali]

Thank you faggot for correcting me. :)

[Zaekk]

You're welcome.

[videogamebeater]

You said "I report u". Don't you mean I reported you?

[Zaekk]

I was referencing old copypasta from 4chan's /b/ making fun of Brazilians. The old copypasta said, "gib moni; I rprt u; HUEHUEHUAHUAHUE," or something along those lines.

[terileeisme]

leave achmed the terrorist alone...lol

[DragonBorracho]

How much could last this battery?

Would mutations in the virus produce different qualities in the product, as with the motherboards?

[ThinkTankExperiment]

So the viruses hijack the bacterial machinery and get the ribosomes to produce enzymes that can be used to create an electro-chemical gradient?

[StealthMonkey25]

just create a virus that wont infect us but be able to infect a battery and give it unlimited power, you know, constantly multiplying battery acid? as long as you actually USE the batteries you wouldnt have any problems. leave them up sitting for a while and too much acid therefor more pressure therefore it blows up. and more and more acid, and..... fuck it thats a bad idea i just made. unless you guys dont think so?

[creepyblueeyes]

there's no such thing as unlimited power cause energy has to come from somewhere it cant be created only converted

[comptomcoom]

Lol, so now when you get a battery leak what happens? Does this virus like living in humans?

[ecreif]

yeah maybe but you then you dont have to eat anymore because you have a strong battery inside :P

[G0DLESSENDEAVOR]

Viruses wouldn't do a good job at recharging. Since there on a small particle scale, it would react to metal's at a slow rate as opposed to just plugging the battery in an electrical outlet.

[wcfcarolina13]

and thus in 2509, the virus mutated, and it spread throughout the world. nobody noticed it because it was dorment for another twenty years, and then the symptoms began. The vaccine failed, because all of the equipment used to make it was powered by the virus, and all of mankind died of the battery virus...

[marsCubed]

History repeats itself, just like when the steam train was invented and all the cows stopped laying and the chickens stopped giving milk. the whole of England starved to death then and has never recovered, hopefully one day people will move back if they ever pass laws to force trains to go at walking pace. Technology is great, it is just a shame that every new invention wipes humanity out so completely that civilization has to start again.

[wcfcarolina13]

so what if it's mass produced, then the virus mutates, and it infects tons of people, but since it's inside batteries, it also infects all kinds of other crap it wouldn't normally infect...

and on a lighter future, if viruses multiply like crazy, could this mean that one day we'll have nearly infinite energy?

[Arebum]

I like that idea. I've always been interested about viruses and how they could be used for machines. I just hope that they don't mass produce this before extensive tests have been run...

[BeondaPale]

if there is anything that we as a species should have learned by now, it's that there are very often unforseen consequences to any particular action.

Chaos theory ...tread carefully

[BeondaPale]

then again, maybe i'm just ignorant

still... be careful lol

[cycimian]

Lets build a better virus. Amazing when theres famon world in the modern world we take the time to recreate a virus which by its basic nature will adapt and increase not only in its numbers but the leathality which is the nature of all virus.

[Tenetri]

OMG ITS THE T-VIRUS ALL OVER AGAIN.

jk, awesome video, wonder how long till something like that is commercial?

Too bad the government can't tax the regeneration process, or it would be out tomorrow =3

[BlitzWing00]

ScienCentral should include a link to their article about this video on the side panel....this video was vague & unclear until I read their article on their website.

[E2Lopes]

n00bs

[Onwa06]

I don't think this is a good idea. Trying to control a virus is dangerous, very unpredictable.

I'm not saying that I know a lot of science, but I know enough that it is call a virus for a reason.

[Hilariousity]

I think your crazy. Its not like they are manipulating something thats alive and that can turn against you. They are just manipulating a bunch of proteins that are very very small

[humanist7117]

you're not your

[arcanics1971]

Hey, Onwa06: There are billions of viruses but only a fraction of them harm us. You may be infected right now with a million of them but if they are not of a strain that is harmful to you, then you would never know.

That said, a virus can mutate but it's very unlikely in this scenario to mutate into something harmful.

[Mikimm10]

You are wrong arcanics1971. Viruses can mutate into harmful viruses if they aren't yet. In other words this is very much "natures touch" with a human touch (which if I may add made the atom bomb too) could cause a new threat to mankind... Sorry to try and ruin the optimism but it is too much a risk to try that. I mean if it binds with or uses metal then if let out could be a problem to all the metal objects in the radius thus creating a large charge or crumbling of the metal. No characters left.

[arcanics1971]

I'll admit I'm wrong if you can show me where I said a benign virus can't mutate into a harmful one.

Why use a red herring like the atomic bomb?.

The rest of your comment is junk-science.

[Mikimm10]

Junk Science to some. A DAMN TRUTH TO OTHERS.There is always the chance that something goes wrong. So don't deny my comment. Oh and I think the word unlikely is the right word for when did you say that one can't mutate. And why use the atom bomb as a comparison? BECAUSE IT IS THE DAMN TRUTH. The A bomb is a thing that messes with molecules and atoms and this thing messes with Viruses (which are made of molecules and atoms just like everything in the universe). Don't just look at the bright side.

[paypascal]

Yeah get more paranoid, when bad things can be done they will be done, so it might be now or over 100 years. I'd prefer now, at least we can start building new defenses when something breaks out :-)

[arcanics1971]

Your views are junk science because they are based on ignorance as your comment clearly demonstrates. You're entitled to your opinion, of course, but as you are using it to spread fear and ignorance then I am entitled to call bullshit.Stating that the A bomb and viruses are a fair comparison because they both effect "molecules and atoms" shows that you have no clue what you're talking about.

[Richardgwm]

*Cough*

Sorry, I am coming down with a bad case of battery.

*Sniffle*

[Probewitch]

So your robot says; "I'm low on power, please excuse me, while I look for a fresh virus."  Ha ha ha...

[superman559cali]

Crazy :)

[robertghouston]

Innovative!

[SCARREDMIND]

wait, will the virus be in the battey, or just used for the manufacturing process?

[soulshined]

it's in the battery, but don't worry it's not harmful to humans, and it is also a controlled virus.

[SCARREDMIND]

controlled viruses? not my kind of pet thanks.lol

though, if its in the battery, wont that affect the life time of the battery, due to it literally dying and starting to rot?

[soulshined]

it's not what your thinking at all, in fact it's quite the opposite, the 'virus' is going to rejuvenate & revitalize the battery cells literally growing new ones, just like any other battery it's only going to have so many charge cycles & inevitably die, but it's going to be in the thousands times more than a normal battery charge cycle life span. Don't

think of it as a virus like your used to, like the Flu & so forth, although it is one by name, it's not doing the same actions as a 'flu' would.

[winterborn82]

thats the point the virus dies leaving behind the metal in position

[MaryJaneAddiction]

viruses dont die becasue they are not a living thing

[winterborn82]

my car can die and its not a living thing. to die is to cease to function

[Mikimm10]

A virus is a living thing. But true it's surely not going to die.

[MaryJaneAddiction]

it is not becasue a living thing needs a cell to reproduce

[MonkeysMovies]

Actually viruses aren't alive. They're just non metabolizing nanotech.

watch?v=MBIZI4s5NiE

And just because they can do something doesn't mean they should.

[Mikimm10]

Sorry but nanotech is the wrong therm for viruses. Do tell me then how the plague got created in a lab in those times?

[MonkeysMovies]

Mikimm10

They didn't.

Plague is caused by bacteria, not a virus.

Bacteria is alive, viruses are nanotech.

[Mikimm10]

Ok then I ask you again. Is it nanotech that is spreading over the world currently? Certainly not darn it! I mean nanotech is not equal Swine or Bird flu or the Swine flu that got on two of the birds there in Chile or however it's spelled in your country. And I am ruse it's not just some bacteria! I mean if it was then why is the thing not gone when people wash and such like most bacteria? Oh and by the way. Did you play any game named Epidemic? It's shows how the world might end up.

[proverb311031]

@MonkeysMovies Why does this Remind me of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within? They used oval pack to create Bio-Etheric Energy to power everything

[proverb311031]

@MonkeysMovies Why does this Remind me of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within? They used oval packs to contain the energy that they to created from Bio-Etheric Energy to power everything

[ugoindown44]

it will be in the battery

[Craydon]

How about a recharger that fits in you pocket and runs off body heat?

[gamedeep]

The only problem with that is: How do you use heat as an energy source?

[SpecialKit]

heat=energy=heat=motion

[ugoindown44]

but it wouldn't be very easy to move around since it would have to convert the heat into a useable energy.

it would also be very expensive.

[PatchA4]

very interesting, could be very good for our technology these days

[Charles2337]

Wow that's amazing.

[ethans789]

Woa

[wsupitstonyy]

mutation will erupt haha.

[swbf3]

What you said. Seems crazy. But good idea, batterys probaly add alot to garbage dumps, and pollute the water etc.

BTW: 2 CND COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!

[kaishininjou]

"forcing viruses to interact with materials that they would not ordinarily interact with"; probably not a smart idea as the viruses will most likely mutate and evolve because of that forced interaction; and since the interaction is one that does not occur naturally, the resultant mutations will probably be something unseen before. *just logical assumptions*

[misskriss678]

Couldn't agree with you more.

[destructicon500]

I understand what you're saying, but I also think that maybe you've been watching too many sci-fi movies

[kaishininjou]

to some degree you may be right ^_^ ; however, the plausibility of this possibility remains high. i'm not trying to say this is a bad thing and that it should not be pursued; on the contrary, this is extremely good. i'm just saying that nature is and can be rather unpredictable.

[changmaster14]

there could be mutations int he parts.....

[fielong17]

How cool is this? using a virus to power your......remote? do we actually use batteries anymore? other than lithium?

[mtvenar]

Cool idea, if it doesn't attack bio matter.

first.
