imagine when bionic limbs get soo good the only reason to keep your real ones is sentimental value

[@krknfmkr8919]

As an amputee, believe me even if I could "on your right" Steve Rogers I would take my functional 65 year old legs in a heartbeat

[@theproblemmustbeinyourpant5910]

Thankfully that will never be the case

[@justcrispy5981]

Working on making that real as we speak

[@h.r.hufnstuf4171]

Yeah I know many a 60yo that would fuck the old shit off in a heartbeat. Each to they own.@@krknfmkr8919

I think the real furture of proshetics is not mechanical limbs, but artificial grown ones from the persons own cells (so the body doesn't reject it).

[@seaoc6578]

Yes and no. Bionic ones are much closer, as we can't fully replicate cell growth to the level needed to make that. Plus, the problem with skin is its truly not that great. It serves its purpose but something like carbon fiber is both more durable and lighter than that of an average arm. We just need to connect it to nerve endings and it'll function just like a normal limb

[@Welther47]

@@seaoc6578 I'm sure you are the expert.

[@magicwood2360]

I could see scientists trying to connect bionic limbs to the mind so there would be better reaction timing ,strength control , and feeling of course .

Thanks for feeling ,better and human again. Thanks for helping the injured, rebuild

This is really awesome. I love this world of prosthetics. Take care and have a great week!! 🌍💯🤗

[@Sebastianmaz615]

So this means the "Six Million Dollar Man" from late 70s was primitive tech compared to current tech. This video is amazing. 👍🏻😊

[@krknfmkr8919]

Actually in many ways it was more profetic for it's time. And $30,000 is what mine will cost. But they were getting into stuff that was scientific theory at best and outright science fiction then. Sixties

[@rickysmyth]

It's only expensive because people will pay anything to get their health back. If only health care were non profit there would be so much less suffering in the world

[@kathryncook7193]

It's also expensive because of the technology being used.

[@DiegoGuillermoSchmidt]

The game changer will be direct brain machine interface.

[@krknfmkr8919]

Actually working on that with subdermal chips, tiny, that can link to the legs with tiny wires, perhaps Bluetooth in the future. Also may be able to use chips to repair Alzheimers.

[@misterbutter230]

Anyone know what kind of discipline specializes in designing & producing these kind of things, biomedical? Electrical engineering?

[@CardGamesTV1]

Mostly engineering

[@grandgamingexhilarating]

It's Biomedical engineering, even better if it's offered as an undergraduate specialty.

[@stevenculver7228]

In general, an engineering degree is needed for this kind of research, but there are other disciples that are part of the boarder field. Depending on what you want to do with bionics, you can have a mechanical, electrical, biomedical, or robotics engineering degree. But collaboration can cross boundaries to the medical side with prosthetist-scientists, physician-scientists, and surgeons. The field is also rapidly expanding into artificial intelligence.

Orthotics and prosthetics

[@koviroli]

A team or even a whole company working on a project like this. Not just one person. Designers, Doctors, Software Engineers, Hardware Engineers... There also also Team Managers, Project Owners, Software Tester, Hardware Testers, people who do marketing for it... You can be part of a project like this from a wide range of different specializations. Go ahead!

[@google12greekmythsthatprove.]

Someone in the comment section said that humans are creating organs better that what we are born with? Our organs are so personal to each individual that a person after an organ transplant will take on the personality of their organ donors and can even have that person's memories YIKES that is so cool.

[@JacknVictor]

Just a shame they are so expensive. Until the price drops, I'm stuck in the house.

[@aayushjoshi5089]

plz make a video on future of biomedical engg.

That surgery for implanting prosthetics to the bone looks f***ing painful

[@ANONIE47]

It's a surgical procedure, carried out under a general anaesthetic 🙂 . Post-op painkillers would also be used. After healing, the artificial limb is click on, click off.

[@Project_415]

@@ANONIE47 kinda reminds me of what they do in Fullmetal Alchemist, except in that they hook it up to your nerves.

[@abidmanzoor3027]

but question is where we get these bionic limbs? in an accident i lost my both legs

[@krknfmkr8919]

If you're in the US, there are some companies, some of the more advanced ones can have tiny chips under the skin, connected to sensors in the limb that give your nerves immediate feed back.

[@krknfmkr8919]

My sympathies, I only lost one. Mine will have a microprocessor that "learns" my stride. It has pressure sensors that give the ankle and knee joints feedback. I can't get it until the swelling goes down, above knee amputation. 2-3 months

[@caswellfolk9697]

Is sounds messed up but growing human bodies with no brain (so there’s no conscious) then using the parts is the most realistic approach I can think of. Then somehow altering our cells to accept the limbs.

[@artyxhd5295]

I can already see a future where a company is trying to weaponize prosthetic limbs

Elon musks brain chip will help a lot with the latency and also with it in the skull the signals would be stronger. Then the feeling of touch would be even better.

[@kennedykihara3800]

Amen

[@mosab643]

I bet powering them is an issue too.

[@CardGamesTV1]

Nope. Actually regrowing limbs is the future.

[@stephfeels555]

I hope so

[@mlmasonry7136]

I believe it’s possible now but there’s not a way to charge a person for the rest of there life, money is truly the root of all evil!

[@ARandomCogboi]

Sorry, but no. Regrowing limbs is nice, for now. But 100 years down the road, bionics will render natural body parts outdated.

[@krknfmkr8919]

A problem with it is you would have to have cured cancer; accelerated growth would result in a high risk of cancer
