This presentation deserves a hand.
Amazing. Great advancements in the field, and Todd Kuiken explained everything in a way that made it easy to understand.
@SEThatered Glad you noticed! We've been working on this fix for a while, was actually more difficult than one would have imagined. Had to do with filters and compression and not having the original source file...
I realize this video is a few years old, but it's still very encouraging to see such progress.
great presentation! one of the best and most interesting i have seen in a while!
beautiful work
Brilliant work!
This was absolutely fascinating.
Amazing! People like him and his team are making the world a better place.
It's fantastic to see how this technology really helps people. Just imagine what they can do in a few years!
Wonderful.
That is amazing stuff. All we need is the next step in nerve to electronic interface to make it integral to the body.
first standing ovation ive seen on TED
These guys are ingenious.
I am incredibly grateful to live in a time where such a discovery can be made.
Great to see this amazing work. And he sounds pleasantly like Richie Cunningham/Ron Howard
Amazing stuff!!
I really appreciate the honesty of this presentation. The media always tries to trump research up, as if it wasn't amazing enough already. The last story I read about prostheses made it sound like i-robot style bionic arms were just around the corner. I think the realistic portrayal of remarkable process given here is better.
Great speech, David Sarif...
Thankyou Todd and team, you're doing great things.
Amanda I'm using the Be-Bionic v3 and powered wrist, I'm soo jealous that you've got wrist flexion as well. But thanks to you and other amputees who are pushing the boundaries, these things that "normal" humans take for granted may soon be available to all of us. Good luck sweetheart :)
as a Mechanical Engineering first year student... i think i just figured out what i want to do with my life... thank you TED and thank you Todd
One heck of a schoolteacher to have. I'm envious.
Fascinating
Awesome!
I would ask for this.
makes me feel extremely grateful for having healthy arms
wondering if its possible to divert the nerves to our back/rear shoulders for more space
Amazing !
fantastic
All the feels
brilliant! hope he keeps getting funds to continue the great work - and make it commercially viable. good luck.
This is simply amazing! the stuff of science fiction from the not so distant past is now becoming a reality and frankly a miracle in its own right. outstanding sir!
@gmgunner what's on 0:17 ??
When she spun her hand, I shit my pants with how awesome it was.
@LithiumLogica That's something I can agree too. Also, I tried watching that once, but I got board rather quickly... I may try again though now that you mention it.
12:32 I lol'd
What a charismatic woman
If he can feel both his chest and his hand, then if you ran something across his chest he would get 2 different signals
Biologically, would that affect or confuse the brain?
this is pretty farking awesome
@LithiumLogica I agree completely. Although, what are the implications of us as a species knowing that we can basically tear our own limbs off for robotic ones. That would really be interesting to watch... Also, I agree with the idea that the chrome and metal covers would be cool. I (being a FMA fan) think bionics are one of the coolest things in modern science along with (bit of a Controversial subject) the almost infinite possibilities of stem cells.
love it
Amanda's arm looks cool
@stainglassfox I thought about it until I saw her hand turn at the wrist 360° - ouch!
Very good. Keep researching.
@TheDhezballah Integral: of, pertaining to, or belonging as a part of the whole; constituent or component.
Intigrate: to bring together or incorporate (parts) into a whole.
I would like to se them integrate these parts, making them integral to the body. Thanks for the point out, though.
i love ur channel
Oh my goodness stop with the obnoxious comments. Just think about how exciting this is for us , what if you loose your arm anytime soon, you never know what can happen, this is a complete lifesaver. It's just so cool how quickly we're renovating our technology and the amazing heights that we're able to reach. Im impressed and these first few testing amputees like Jesse Sullivan have put so much time and effort and risked their life(they knew it would be worth it no matter what)
I can imagine that eventually 3D printers could be used to custom make these arms for the individual, so that they match their other arm when they only lose one.
The year is 2011. It is a time of great innovation and technological advancement.
Is there any similar things for disability person due stroke ?
Are all those electrodes really necessary? I mean, when the muscles move, can't the movement be read optically?
I wonder what is the researchers' stance on prosthetic limbs that can do more than real ones (i.e. are stronger, more flexible or faster).
@TEDtalksDirector We REALLY REALLY appreciate it though!!! =D
Amazing!, but i must admit i first thought of skynet when i saw this ^_^. Thankyou beautiful humans for always thinking!!!
@TEDtalksDirector
Thank you for lowering the intro volume!
I'm thinking doing somthing like this more advanced
@tranceman14
I'd be afraid to try. That'd be the worst possible time for a malfunction.
All these goddamn feels.
hijo llenas de orgullo a tu nación
12:30 Coolest thing I've seen a live human do, probably ever.
9:28 Full Metal Alchemist!!! OMG OMG 😲
I legit thought this was impossible
In the near-future we could potentially reconnect the nerve endings with nanomachines that trace the specific nerve ending's signal. Eh?
that feel when Rin Tezuka
They should go more hybrotic or organic for prosthetic systems. Siphonophores are connected in their colonies by a simple neural net. Just grow nerves into the arm with nanobioreactors...
Prosthetics was great for the past,growing new living anything is for now and the future.
Knew Kuiken when I was in stroke rehab at R.I.C. some time ago, the only 'minus' in an otherwise enlightening odyssey. One cold fish.
but will it blend?
What kind of feels does an arm even feel?
Cool
17:40 sounds like he's advertising for a new iPhone.
The Luke Arm!! Makes me think more of Ghost in a Shell @Nunchucks67
@TViRuSX900, yup. Next - Sarif Industries.
A.mendoza,,-1 yr.ago
I need prosthetic hand.
15:18 ...but my favorite one was... the kungfu grip
I know that feel bro.
when she spun her hand... i could feel the bones in my wrist crying...
This is fucking awesome. =)
@LithiumLogica Oh, I understand this, I was just saying that so as not to offend you or anyone else. as for the facts, that is an interesting comparison. Do you have a source, I'd really like to read into this subject.
I didn't get one thing. What company does work on this?
Sarif Industries
manioo8 hahaha, like them, but you're wrong
FUARKING INTREDASTING
Why can't I, hold all these feels.
HUMANITY - FUCK YEAH!
I think I read about this on a E-book in Deus Ex HR
Oh, boy. Time to stock up on Neuropozyne.
@LithiumLogica i was just thinking that. carbon fiber and titanium, not fake skin!
@DJFishmonger
Curses! You beat me because I was googling while I was typing. Well played mister ninja.
As a person with a disability from birth (i.e. in a wheelchair as I can't stand or walk) I am sitting here wondering if this technology can be applied to my situation and allow me to walk. If you could putt me in touch with Todd to work with him on this I would appreciate it. Sujit K. Reddy
@LithiumLogica That's a good point, in Richard Dawkins book "The God Delusion" he mentioned that embryos at that stage don't even have nervous systems to feel pain. So I think the point is, what suffering?
Humanity is awesome :)
BETTER MODELS AND OP ON THE DOCTORS SHOW
@LithiumLogica Cool, Thanks.
i love science
@DarkMnMChocolate I was thinking the exact same thing! :D
@rpifb18 Well good for you.
BIONICCC... AAAARMMM!!!!
@Persason well u can use google and learn bout all this stuff, so if u are bright u could build an arm by your self ^^
augmented
Winter Soldier Arm...
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@krqkan I doubt it being nearly as effective as receiving real lectures at universities :). In theory you could though, the question is just how many people would want some random guys home made robotic arm :P.
