What does "Death is easy" mean? Getting killed is easy? Or deciding to kill oneself is easy?

There is a very easy way for this guy to prove that his invention work. Do like every other inventor and take your arm out of the invention and try to make it move without anything in it.
Its really sad to see BBC falling for this cheap HOAX. Some of the junk as recognized: 1) 0:47 Tubes from medical oxygen delivery (for no reason at all) 2) 0:58 Left red module is some kind of video recording device (Camera + SD CARD SLOT), Green device is probably a toy with a power supply and a small micro-controller (Plus a crystal osc). Makes no sense in any bionic arm. 3) 1:07 A mouse with some LED's, yes an Optical mouse, with the camera :) 4) 1:12 Fake/Pneumatic looking devices and pipes which cause no sound at all :P 5) 1:16 Motors without power supply or control wires, or even position sense/feedback mechanism. 6) 1:29 Stepper motor apparently runs with just two wires, that's just hilarious. Again the feedback not used. And, we are not even talking BLDC here. These were the glaring ones, now if I start about the sensing, analysis and its going to get messy. Let's start with the sensor, 0:58, its supposed to turn on the blue LED's when it receives a 'brain wave'. Apparently, it has no signal conditioning, per-amplifiers and any of the required precise electronics to do any of that. Its technically impossible to modify that circuit to read brain waves, its just not going to work. Moreover, the signal processing needs much more processing than shown, I mean orders of magnitude higher than shown here; in simple terms, the arm is a much more complex thing than people seem to believe, and neuro-science is damn hard. Even if we assume (of course the assumption is not true anyway), that the brain signals are read somehow, the motors and pneumatic system is just fake and it cannot work. Any, such system needs a closed-loop to work. No feedback and the device would go haywire, its simply how it works. Stepper motors have two pairs of coils at a minimum and need 4 wires to be driven, 2 wires as shown in the video won't and can't work. What job two cameras, and the mouse on the back is doing is just baffling. Last but not the least, an air pneumatic system without a working pump (and, yes it causes sounds, lots of it). The saddest thing is to see that anyone in BBC is not able to call it a hoax. The BBC website states 'He claims the machine is controlled by brain signals, but experts have cast doubts upon it', I mean just doubts, what kind of experts are these, who cannot call out a hoax :(

Disclaimer: I'm not an expert: if you don't want to hear it from "not an expert" don't read. To create a "bionic arm" like that, the knowledge in following fields should be required: 1. Neuroscience: Observe that the "electrode" headband thing on his head isn't even close to the part of the brain that controls movement (cerebellum, located at the lower back of the head). Say that he is using other parts of the brain, which is possible, note that "Electrodes" are also precise devices, you can't simply put a headband thing and expect them to read the brain activity that you want. 2. Computer Science/Computer Programming: Ever heard of Evolutionary Algorithms, Genetic Algorithm, Back Propagation and the likes. Please be informed that every human brain are slightly different from each other. One needs to know that a certain set of brain activity corresponds to a certain set of movements, emotion, sensations etc. These always happens at the same time and so Brain cells or Neuron firing signals are always mixed up with one another. That is why you need to filter which set Neuron Signals you want to use and you need a computer to do that , and no not the mother board (or whatever it is) at his back. 3. Mechanical Engineering: Check out that very powerful "Actuator", it sure can carry his entire "paralyzed arm". there is also and actuator starting from his upper right chest to his shoulder, if it is moving it will just move the structure on his shoulder out of place. (i should stop here, just see for your self, Camera angles doesn't allow you to have a good look at the contraption but it still wrong in so many levels). 4. Electrical Engineering: Which he learned in High School, so OK: 5. Ummm, welding: he good at that: And perhaps other science that i haven't thought or heard of.

+Rod Zamora You don't need to put sensors on the part of the brain that controls motion. It's possible to put them somewhere else and reprogram the brain, so that imagining 3 red dots will actually move your arm. Um I should add the disclaimer that I do think this is a hoax.

>Does welding for living. >Can't afford food. >Lost "control" on left arm. "I guess I'll build a robot arm with my extensive knowledge in robotics while welding using bootleg sun glasses to buy rice!"
I would've believed it if the guy put the "sensors" around his shoulder, shoulder blade, and upper chest. Electrical prosthetic arms relies on the electrical impulses in the muscles of the afflicted areas to engage and disengage movement, if we could decipher neurological electrical impulses though the head then we would've had cyborgs a long time ago.

This is basically cosplay. It's no more a bionic arm than Titan the Robot is a real functioning AI. At the 1min mark you can see the headband just has the guts of a cheap SD card video camera tied to it. There's also no contact points on the inside of the headband by which either brainwave monitoring or resistive lie-detection could work. The thing on his back with a green LED is the guts of an optical mouse. The elbow gearbox has no output. The "pistons" are air-springs that would push rather than pull if they worked at all. The shoulder bracket is a bicycle brake caliper that would snap if it actually had any load put on it like that. The potentiometer on the shoulder has its shaft welded to something that can't turn. The guts of a laser-printer, the suspension air reservoir from a car, bits of old hose.. Also, you know, his arm moving freely around inside it at 1:13. Bravo sir, you've shown how low the the technology reporting of the BBC has fallen. I'm off to strap some xmas light to a broom and tell them I'd made a ray-gun.

However, the sound from pneumatics seems non-existing, steppers seem too weak and I don't get how he localize with enough accuracy which part of the brain being responsible for which part of the signal.

It's a cool looking arm, but I'm highly skepitcal of it. Normal bionic arms work by rerouting nerves onto the remaining arm muscles (assuming we're talking about missing limbs) and placing the sensors there. I don't see how the headband is supposed to work.
I can not believe

so he puts a brand on his head and it read the cerebellum (which isnt there) signals to move a cosplay style arm that doesnt have a powersupply. and he done it all with a welder tool with scrap while engineers and scientist with high capacity cannot do that with millions of dollars? makes sense tho
bisa lah alat itu bergerak tanpa tangan?
It's pretty clear that this is some kind of promo for his shop so people will come to buy work from him. I really wish it was true but, it doesn't even look like its attached to his forearm with enough torque to move it. Also, from the looks of it, he is just moving his arm. His movement is too natural and perfect to be the result of that device.
looks like this is man from blade runner but not from planet earth

1:00 - 1:04 he can control the machine with his brain LOL :v
Yes it's obviously fake but you gotta admit it looks pretty darn cool if it got polished or something.
this isnt real the arm would have to be connected by a neuro link to his brain and to do that he would have to go to hospital and have it performed by a brain surgeon
