Chapter 255 Early Prosthetics and Early Prosthetic Eyes
Muscles, attached to bones, support the human body, provide strength, and protect bones and organs.
Boxing... or any exercise, is inseparable from the use of muscles.
Only when you can consciously make one or a few muscles exert force can you be considered "getting started."
As a person who has received modern education and practiced martial arts for many years, Lu Xuanyu has a special sensitivity to muscle lines.
And now, he saw something "similar" on the prosthetic body.
It is not exactly the same, it can only be said to be "very similar". But it is similar but obviously different from the structure of the human body. In Lu Xuanyu's eyes, it simply exudes magical charm.
Lu Xuanyu was attracted by a young man. The young man wore a sports vest on his upper body and a pair of shorts on his lower body. His thighs were cut off in the middle, and the length of the stubble was slightly different. The place where the prosthetic body came into contact with the flesh was just exposed in the shorts.
under.
At the end of the thigh break, you can vaguely see a "non-skin" transition layer, where the ivory color of the skin gradually becomes lighter.
Below this "transition zone" is a complete prosthesis.
Perhaps because it is still in the testing stage, the shell of this prosthetic limb is made of transparent material, but the transparent material is not a piece of iron, but several plates that are spliced together in some form to form a visible body similar to the muscle lines on the human body.
With its denatured structure, the operation of the internal machinery can be clearly seen.
The young man stepped down. The joints connecting the soles of the feet relaxed and automatically found the most suitable angle. Several modules contracted together to absorb the impact.
Then, the young man's center of gravity moved. Several modules slightly adjusted their positions.
The young man's leg used force again and leaped high. The force started from the ground and was transferred from one module to another module, to the young man's body, and even lifted his body...
Lu Xuanyu even felt dizzy.
--this……
His breathing became a little faster.
"I can stand up in the future" hit Lu Xuanyu's face more vividly than before.
Lu Xuanyu closed his eyes: "It's so good..."
When the group of young people playing basketball saw Florence and his party, they all stopped playing, wiped their sweat and came over to say hello. They all seemed to know Ms. Florence. Florence greeted them with a smile and
Introduced Lu Xuanyu.
After hearing that Lu Xuanyu lost his lower body because of saving people, everyone looked at him with a kind of kindness. Many people here were disabled for similar reasons.
Such a good man is respected everywhere.
Several people patted Lu Xuanyu on the shoulders to express their closeness and encouragement.
A guy from abroad said to him in not very fluent Chinese: "Don't worry, buddy, you will be like us soon - stand up, run, jump, and can do anything."
For a long time, Lu Xuanyu's wife has tried to avoid using words such as "run", "jump" and "step" in front of Lu Xuanyu.
To be honest, although Lu Xuanyu didn't mind others using such words in front of him, he would feel a little awkward when he heard them.
For the first time in several years, he felt "joy" from these words.
Ms. Florence asked again about their current recovery progress.
After that, they started playing basketball again. A few guys actually forgot which team they were on, and the situation quickly became chaotic.
But everyone is happy.
These people who completed the prosthetic transformation earlier can already move freely in this area. They can even leave the medical center and go out for a walk.
It's just that there are very few benchmark people now, and there are only about fifty in the world. People who go out wearing cotton-padded jackets in summer are really conspicuous. These young benchmark people still feel most comfortable here at this stage.
They were doing some exercise here - seemingly to compensate for the period of physical disability, they were particularly happy when exercising.
"These are the first batch of prosthetic humans." Florence introduced, "How about it."
Lu Xuanyu nodded, almost crying: "Is this all?"
"No. There are only ten people here." Florence said: "There are still some people resting. In addition, you should also know that not all disabilities occur in the limbs. In fact, the human body has
A part that is much more fragile than a limb."
Lu Xuanyu was still in a daze, but Lu Xuanyu's wife had already widened her eyes: "It can't be the eyes, right?"
"Well, yes, eyes." Florence nodded: "Many military training accidents can cause eyeball damage and blindness."
"Oh my God..." Lu Xuanyu's wife sighed: "This is okay..."
Florence smiled and said: "I can take you to see it. Among the first batch of volunteers, about ten people are blind. In addition, there is also a blind patient who is a painter from Poland. He is an expert in art.
She has a certain reputation in the industry. She is also a volunteer personally invited by the boss."
Florence took the two of them to a test area again.
What project was going on in that test area? When Lu Xuanyu and the others approached, the lights happened to be turned off. Lu Xuanyu looked inside along the display window and found that the only light source in the entire space was a projection screen, and an image was being played on it.
Then, the lights were turned back on, and Lu Xuanyu noticed that a volunteer was sitting on a chair, communicating with the researcher next to him. The volunteer also wore heavy sound-isolating headphones on his head.
But the soundproofing effect of this room is very good, they can't hear the sound inside.
"This is single-sided reflective glass. They can't see outside. There is only white noise in the headphones." Florence said: "In order to prevent volunteers from having distracting thoughts as much as possible, which will interfere with the experimental results."
"This is at……"
"Trying to optimize the prosthetic eye." Florence said: "Although Mr. Yawgmoth always said, 'Biology is also a machine made of protein.' And this kind of machine has very no sense of design. I want to give it to the people in heaven."
Those designers who have bad reviews - I will definitely complain if I can', but at this stage, human creations still cannot match them in terms of 'exquisiteness' at the micro level."
"I want to integrate photosensitive units with a number and performance comparable to visual cells in an area the size of an ordinary retina, and then transfer the data collected by each unit to the corresponding area of the brain... In various senses,
It’s a nightmare.”
"What human prosthetic eyes can currently do... let's put it this way, the world in their eyes is equivalent to only 240p."
Behind her, Lu Xuanyu and his wife were already quite shocked.
