Bionic Implant Restores Mobility In Monkeys

Recently in a first of its kind science research experiment an international team of scientists collaborated together to implant a wireless neural network in a pair of Rhesus Macaque (monkeys) to restore mobility in their temporarily paralyzed legs. They did so by bypassing the spinal cord injury with “brain-spine interface” implants, restoring intentional walking movement. The discovery is first of its kind because of its use of a neural prosthetic implant allowing for the restoration of movement.

The Future Of Robotics Meet Jibo – Personal Robotic Assistant

Since the first time I laid my eyes on C-3PO and R2-D2 the robotic assistant’s who aided the Jedis from Star Wars, I instantly wanted my very own robotic companion. A childhood dream you might say, but alas the day of where humans and robots living side by side has finally come true. Robotics has come a long way bringing people closer to living in the future then ever before that was only possible in Science fiction novels and films.

3D Printer That Can Print With 40+ Materials, The Axiom

The 3D printer market has been growing at an ever-increasing rate, with no sign’s of slowing down. 3D printer companies have been popping up over night filling different market segments in the ever-expanding 3D printer space. Many 3D printer companies offer intuitive, feature rich, and well built 3D printers, take for example, MakerBot Industries 3D printers, but when it comes to multi-material printers very few companies offer multi-material capable 3D printers and tend to have a steep learning curve.
