Electronic skin could give robots a sense of touch | BBC News 

Why, why was I programmed to feel pain!?

Could this also be applied to human prosthetic limbs?

Oh that's lovely. So they can feel our neck when they're strangling it

OH God... I just finished watching the Westworld series.

I'm so happy for the robots. Overjoyed. Some day they will develop robots that are able to give birth and raise their young. Wouldn't that be precious??

Another good addition for real dolls

They just showed some flexible PCB and an out dated robot that barely used touch... Feels like another empty promise of a new technology that doesn't yet have any real use.

When they make a speakable robot, they don't give it a body. When they make a running robot, they don't let it speak. It's obviously what they are hiding in the last step.😮😮😮

One step closer to terminator

Awesome, VR haptic suits from "Ready Player One"... Put this with the small company making powered exosuits for NASA space walk missions.

Robot, ‘Give me some skin man’ 🤣🤣🤣🇬🇧♥️

I don't even know exactly why but this seems like a really bad idea

What's with 'dis lady reporter's pronunciation, BBC? She miss pronounces all of her TH sounds.

Super cool

HAHA 2:46 that old Titan controller shows up... .its all going to go terribly wrong.

robot goes from handshake to crushing your hand into jello because of a faulty sensor. 😂 😂

Please hurry up with these technological advancements, I need a gf.

Skin also helps protect from dust ingress.

FINALLY! A step closer to making the royals real and human.

I am experiencing numbness energylessness bloodlessness.

Thanks BBC News From Egypt

This is fantastic. Every human has their own varied ability to feel and this will help us understand that better.

Computer vision could scan surface and interpret the texture.

that white robot looks like that ET from mexico parliament

Can I just give a RIP for Doctor Woke. Lowest ever ratings for a Who. Congratulations BBC. 👍

Of course

RIP rehab team

We are in the future this is crazy

I mean, I use Hall effect sensors embedded in silicone. Very effective. The thinner stuff is welcomed for sure tho

we should probably not do that

Apply this tech to prosthetics. Real bionics

So here comes cybernetics. The next cosmetics craze. 🤐🇺🇲🇹🇹

Imagine if a robot married a human. I mean. we could have the first birth of the first half robot and half human being.

I haven't felt in years. I know a few Royal Marines who haven't felt anything in a while.

Maybe mankind could give humans souls, ethics, compassion, honor, humility, and other traits like that instead. Personally, I think it'd be a MUCH better usage of their most precious resource.

Pretty sure Tesla’s Optimus’ fingers already do touch

Detroit Become Human...

This is scary man...

More than robots, I'm curious to see how this could translate into better prosthetic limbs.

When I was little I dreamed with robots and never though to see it in real life! But now I don’t know if I want to see for real

*Stasis Blackcell should be the default design for all neurosensory androids*

Interesting, but why the disturbing background music?

We’re so cooked

electronic skin could make hackers life easy so bbc can broadcast touch of news from anywhere and anytime

Can you fix the palms to robots lite Tesla bot by this summer? Thank you

Thing is NVidia & Hippocratic AI is on the road to answering the nursing shortage.

Who cleans the robot after? waste of money

I previously saw the Adam coffee robot at an exhibition.

Add this to gpt 4o

Wait until they get emotion .

Stacking shelves in Tesco next .........

I am ready to get in the goddamn robot! (with Asuka)

Can we at least have the 1st robot built like Arnold Schwarzenegger?

Synth skin next for humans then we'll get closer to the cyberpunk world...................................

because nothing says "don't worry, you'll be fine" like complete isolation and not even seeing another human's face LOL. The Hell Are You Thinking? please tell me this is not the final design? the tech involved may be amazing but I'm a programmer and even i know enough phycology to know this is a bad idea. bring at least one head-shrinker on to the team to keep patients mental heath good as well as physical.

Have we figured out what the human nurses will do?

this girl nods more than a drinking bird

music goes hard! matrix vibes!

That's scary for humans 😢

I remember when this was new about 10 years ago

It look like robot in Doctor Who

*Essentially the Gift of the Brain THINKING AHEAD, but... Absolutely Robotic: the OPPOSITE!

Bye Bye Nurse

oh yeah, and soon will be combined with AI

Cyberdyne Systems🤖

Giving life to the beast ---Revelation

Just don't programme the robots like Westworld tried with Delos. Bad enough you want robots as mad as us Scots but giving them the sense of touch...I wonder if anyone called Arnold or Bernard will step up to the plate in this research?.

Don’t dress that robot up as Jimmy Savile, the last thing we need is that thing exploring its sense of touch on a hospital ward.

Oooooh she is going have realistic moans😂😂😂😂😂

❤

Is this necessary? In these days of turmoil, cost of living, and climate change, the last thing we should be putting time and money into is "skin" for robots. 🙄

Badi screen bante hhye

One step closer to cyborgs?

We are becoming less and less connected as time goes on, nature will put us where we deserve...

Thanks Lord for your peace Thanks Lord for your salvation

Nice

Just the beginning, am expecting more creativity

I'll know if terminator is an AI or human by asking for it to say racial slurs.

We're not gonna stop, are we?

Give them rights next.

❤❤❤❤❤

.....😥💧

Hu wow banate huye d

If they can give a robot a sense of feeling maybe they should fit this to the Prime minister and maybe he will stop arming a genocidal state.

And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay. Daniel 2:43

Just Control it👍❤

😮 f*** Robots 😮 I mean that literally and figuratively😮

i see robot/human love affair balloming

Just stop. We don't need any of this ffs.

Why are they still wearing face masks?

Tooo far

That's mean we don't have to use condoms?

Think of what this will mean for sex robots in the near future!:):):)

Последствия ракетного удара по Кировскому району Макеевки - СК РФ Военные следователи Следственного комитета Российской Федерации зафиксировали очередные преступления вооружённых формирований Украины в отношении мирных жителей Донецкой Народной Республики. В результате атаки ранения получили пять мирных жителей. Они госпитализированы, им оказывается квалифицированная помощь. Также повреждения получили многоквартирные жилые дома и объекты инфраструктуры. На месте обстрела обнаружены осколки от снаряда РСЗО образца стран НАТО.

giving a robot sense was done before. robot consciousnrds was dark anf lonely and sense was unbareable pain. and it managed itself against all odd too turn itself off by will. know your history. you doing the wrong things inventions twice. this was done in the year 2002 or so. please stop giving me a headache and read and write. so you dont need too do it again. you are going todo stupid 20 years of now ? please not everything wich can be done need to be done. you should read the conclusion and results of collega sciencetist. it is not all science fiction most things where real (writer stanislaw lemm book/novel "in hot pursuit of happiness" . what i think is most anoying. these people wotking on sene of a robot. dont publish their work. they dont write a thing down. please write a full report on the matter and send it in too zweden for a noble price. as reference. and make an article on wikipedia why this shall fail. end of wasteing community resources. do you never LEARN ??

Naw, All that stuff is getting burned up right along with the satellites…. -We Need to Quit Playing God before he wipes out Humanity…Again🤷🏻‍♀️♥️

Erling Haaland is already a prototype.
