New Bionic Leg Predicts Your Every Move
- Thread starter Earnest Cavalli
- Start date
No Skynet references? Not even a remark about "smart" robotic legs being creepy? Referring to AI and robotics research as "helpful"?
Change your passwords, I think the Escapist has just been hacked by scientists. That or Mr. Cavelli is now a brain in a jar. Or a zombie. Or a slave to robots. Perhaps all three.
OT: Hooray for the future! With the recent advancements in regrowing organs, spray-on skin, and computerized prosthetics, I'm excited to see what the next decade will bring. Wonder when replacement spinal columns will become available.

Want the matching hand? Go to http://www.touchbionics.com/ . They even have developed a skin effect that gets a suntan.
I just hope it won't be accurate in terms of fashion.Patrick_and_the_ricks said:
Anyway, cool development, could really help amputees. In 16 years? We might be a lot closer to Deus Ex than we think.
Fuck that, if I ever need one of those, I'm going for the chrome effect, or better yet; brushed steel. None of that inferior human flesh look! Beautifully engraved like that Sarif dude would be cool too.albino boo said:
Except for the drug dependence thing...Hopefully =/Patrick_and_the_ricks said:
OT: We all know what this means. We have people to fight against Skynet
Imagine all the shit Sarah Connor could of done with bionic limbs.
I was under the assumption that his leg was taken with the creation of the body of what is presumed is his mother and he used his arm to bind Al's soul to the armor...So only an arm. Not a leg.Palademon said:believer258 said:
That is exactly what I was thinking.
Correct me if I'm wrong
As expected, the dramatic sounding title bears little connection to the truth. You can't pretend that "predicts your every move", is the same as "is only a split second behind, and can recognise and compensate for stumbling".
Is there a rule that the title of a technology based news article on the escapist has to be an exciting sounding fabrication?

It works best with people who only understand the main concept, or have at least not gotten far enough into the series to know that they had distinct causes.
