Cnn ran story tonite- she doesnt cost 6 million dollars either- only 4 million
The research was $4 million and the actual hardware she walks around with is a few hundred thousand more and dig this- it works via her thoughts! They reroute the nerves that were attached to the limb attach them to other muscles (hers were in her side up high)- nerves attached to other muscles which control the actual bionic prosthetic!
I was stunned by the implications- namely being all the amputees that can afford it need no longer use prosthetics that are dead/phony- her shoulder, arm, elbow, wrist and hand all worked via her thoughts -holy shit it was mindblowingly sweet technology to watch.
And she was a pretty black woman too.... wonder if bionic chicks do it betta?
Seriously- thinking about the technology for wheelchairbound folks- they said they were gonna be done with legs/knees and such this year! Stunning breakthrough.
Wow- whats next (I'm serious)- in a few decades with computing power going up exponentially- they will have fully functioning bodies- and did I forget to mention she said they had put some technology in the bionics where she can get tactile sensation (for you dummies- she can feel stuff- in her fingers and hand)...
All this stuff is going to be perfected over the next few decades,,, and the uses and roads down which we'll travel using this stuff?! Mindboggling..
