Looking for a new way to multitask as you please? The wearable robotic arms created by scientists at the University of Tokyo may help you do that. via Reuters
…Masahiko Inami’s team at the University of Tokyo have sought to find out by creating wearable robotic arms.
Inami’s team is developing a series of technologies rooted in the idea of “jizai”, an Japanese term that he says roughly denotes autonomy and the freedom to do as one pleases.
The aim is to foster something like the relationship between musician and instrument, “lying somewhere between a human and a tool, like how a musical instrument can become as if a part of your body.”
