In a ground-breaking 5 year experiment, scientists hook up a robotic arm controlled by a computer game to a monkey's brain. In training the monkey to move the arm by 'playing' the game with a joystick. Researchers wanted to learn more about the output of the brain and the individual brain-cell signals. However the monkey was about to do something that would make history and change the lives of those involved.The clip is taken from a fascinating BBC Horizon show called Human2.0.

This is a bloody monsterous abuse of science.and will be used to make non human class slave brained machine cyborgs without doubt

This could be a stunning development for individuals with ALS.The only thing is that this could bring us beyond the thought crime of 1984. There would be no evidence of action needed, all they would need to do is monitor your brain.

Paraplegics, take note. This is your future. Also, airplane drivers, machine operators, computer gamers...

That's if you can afford the technology. When cyborg technology to prolong life finally comes out. You know it's gonna be expensive as shit, and exclusively for the rich.
