Watch: Scientists Create Real Doctor Octopus Arms\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Scientists from the University of Tokyo have developed a set of robotic arms that can be attached to a user’s back. These arms mimic the appearance of Otto Octavius (also known as Doctor Octopus), a fictional character and one of Spider-Man’s most enduring enemies, who wields mechanical, tentacle-like appendages.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Called “Jizai Arms,” the wearable backpack can power up to six detachable robot arms and moves with the user’s body.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

“The system was designed to enable social interaction between multiple wearers, such as an exchange of arm(s), and explore possible interactions between digital cyborgs in a cyborg society,” the scientists wrote in a research note titled\u00a0“Social Digital Cyborgs: The Collaborative Design Process of JIZAI ARMS”<\/em>\u00a0that was published in the\u00a0ACM Digital Library<\/a>, a database of full-text articles and bibliographic literature covering computing and information technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“From our role-playing sessions, we found that our bodies could precisely sense the attachment\/detachment of arms, and we especially felt a strong impact when detaching or reducing the number of robotic arms worn,” the scientists stated in the paper.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

“We also suggested adding customizability to the robotic arms to generate a sense of social ownership, an individual’s sense of ownership towards a specific artificial body part shared among multiple persons, as a future research topic,” they continued.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This technology reminds us of Octavius’ mechanical tentacles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Besides, artificial intelligence — we might also want to prepare for a world of cyborgs.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
