saw a doco on this... apparently its the lead up to a real teminator style future for us. Something about how we are feeding computers direct brain links, and it will lead to computers thinking for themselves... or something like that |

I totally want a robotic hand and a chip in my brain.
That'd be freaking awesome. O-O |

When I said it was the first time I forgot to add that I meant it was the first time they could do routine task like feeding themselves compared to some of the stuff done in ikbeneenauto's video. |

here's a link of what probably was the very first time a monkey controlled a robot arm with brainwaves. It has been on the web for quite some time so this might have been the inspiration for the video you posted chickena5

And I hope all those monkeys get a tummyache from eating Hydrolysate's underwear. Nyah!! Also Mazer, I agree; her accent is intriguing.
Heh. This clip makes me think of ED-209 from RoboCop. "PUT-DOWN-THE-MARSHMALLOW---YOU-HAVE-TWENTY-SECONDS-TO-COMPLY" |

I hope monkeys do take over the earth, and eat all your underwear, Hydro. Take THAT! |

Continuously telling everyone here how robots and monkeys are going to take over Earth is about as repetetive and annoying as the "EPIC" thing we have going here.
Just stop posting robot links and doing it, it's not going to happen like in the movies. Ever. |

Like people have been saying, this is not the first time this has been achieved. Even if this is slightly more advanced than other versions, it still isn't the first time a prosthetic limb has been controlled by impulses sent by the brain. |

This is quite interesting. I wonder what would happen if you left the monkeys alone with their little arm friends... Also, (on a side note) I really enjoyed listening to the nice lady speak. She had a very soothing voice. Did anyone else feel this way? |
