Because Jim's central nervous system is receiving the proprioceptive signals, it knows exactly how to control the synthetic limb in a natural way.
Now, Jim moves and behaves as if the synthetic limb is part of him.
By connecting Jim's nervous system bidirectionally to his synthetic limb, neurological embodiment was achieved.
I hypothesized that because Jim can think and move his synthetic limb, and because he can feel those movements within his nervous system, the prosthesis is no longer a separate tool, but an integral part of Jim, an integral part of his body.
Now I'm often asked when I'm going to be neurally linked to my synthetic limbs bidirectionally, when I'm going to become a cyborg.
Now, for those of you who may not be familiar, Bitcoin is a crypto-currency, a virtual currency, synthetic currency.
And then we are talking also about materials, synthetic biology, for example.
In 1974, the great Ray Kurzweil, the American inventor, worked on building a machine that would scan books and read them out in synthetic speech.
But when I'm reading with synthetic voices, I love to come home and read a racy novel with a real voice.
We stopped planting clover and alfalfa, which are natural fertilizers that fix nitrogen in the soil, and instead we started using synthetic fertilizers.
In the cities cluster, one of the most central was one by Mitch Joachim about ecological cities, and in the genetics cluster, we have a talk about synthetic biology by Craig Venter.
Like, a talk by Steven Pinker on the history of violence, very synthetic.
This lack of individuation of the synthetic voice really hit home when I was at an assistive technology conference a few years ago, and I recall walking into an exhibit hall and seeing a little girl and a grown man having a conversation using their devices, different devices, but the same voice.
From synthetic constructs that resemble biological materials, to computational methods that emulate neural processes, nature is driving design.
In realms of genetics, regenerative medicine and synthetic biology, designers are growing novel technologies, not foreseen or anticipated by nature.
My bionic limbs are attached to my biological body via synthetic skins with stiffness variations, that mirror my underlying tissue biomechanics.
We then do a mathematical transformation to the design of the synthetic skin, shown on the right.
And we've discovered optimality is: where the body is stiff, the synthetic skin should be soft, where the body is soft, the synthetic skin is stiff, and this mirroring occurs across all tissue compliances.
We're also embedding sensing and smart materials into the synthetic skins.
(Tapping sounds) We embed this material into the synthetic skin that attaches my bionic limb to my biological body.
So when this is fully developed and for human use, persons like myself will not only have synthetic limbs that move like flesh and bone, but actually feel like flesh and bone.
Alright, let me tell you about building synthetic cells and printing life.
To prove out this vision, Craig and Ham set a goal of creating, for the first time, a synthetic cell, starting from DNA code in the computer.
As a step toward bringing these promises to fruition, our team set out to create, for the first time, a synthetic bacterial cell, starting from DNA code in the computer.
Synthetic DNA is a commodity.
In 2010, all of the technologies that we had been developing for reading and writing DNA all came together when we announced the creation of the first synthetic cell, which of course, we called Synthia.
Our synthetic cell work was the proof of concept that we could reverse this process: pull a complete bacterial genome sequence out of the computer and convert that information into a free-living, self-replicating cell, with all of the expected characteristics of the species that we constructed.
Synthetic cell technologies will power the next industrial revolution and transform industries and economies in ways that address global sustainability challenges.
The massive efforts to create synthetic cells have made us world leaders at writing DNA.
Our collaborators at Novartis then quickly started turning that synthetic DNA into a flu vaccine.
