Thread: RoboScience

So many of you might be unknowingly harvard science professors or any other geniuses of the modern era. I was viewing some days back a program about study of human brain intelligence impulses generation, so as to interphase it with brain signal mapping with mechanics. So the experimental species was a laboratory monkey whose hands were tied on a chair. And was shown piece of food and through his brain waveform impulses generated were transmitted to a mechanical arm which he moved towards the piece of food even turns its mechanical wrist and grasped with its fingers!!!
So suppose this technology was of year 1990s, then are advanced robotics successfully been created and tested which has thinking processor like humans and even reasoning. And could move, stand erect bipedal? Like as shown in movie robocop?

One thing for sure I am not a Harvard professor.

You might do. Unknowingly.
