BreakingNews·191008 - 癱瘓男子使用機器人套裝走路

A man who is paralyzed from below his shoulders has been able to walk using a robotic suit. The 28-year-old man could not move his arms, hips and legs after an accident. Doctors fitted him with a special robotic exoskeleton - this is a machine that covered his arms, legs and body. The machine was attached to the ceiling so the man could keep his balance and not fall over. He controlled the machine using high-tech sensors that were implanted near his brain. The man used his thoughts to tell the sensors to move the machine. His brain sent messages to the machine and it moved his arms and legs. He was able to walk a few steps using the machine even though he was paralyzed.

一名肩膀以下癱瘓的男子已經能夠使用機器人套裝走路了。這名28歲的男子在一次事故后無法移動手臂、臀部和腿部。醫(yī)生為他安裝了一個特殊的機器人外骨骼——這是一個覆蓋他的手臂、腿和身體的機器。機器被固定在天花板上，這樣這個人就可以保持平衡而不會摔倒。他使用植入大腦附近的高科技傳感器來控制機器。這個人用他的思想告訴傳感器移動機器。他的大腦向機器發(fā)送信息，機器移動他的胳膊和腿。盡管癱瘓了，他還是能用這臺機器走幾步。

Doctors say they are in the early stages of developing this technology. They believe robotic exoskeletons will help disabled people to live better lives in the future. Technology will be able to pick up signals from the brain to control wearable robotic technology. The next stage is to remove the ceiling harness. A neurosurgeon who co-led the exoskeleton trial commented on the exoskeleton suit. He said it was the first wireless, brain-controlled system to be designed that can move all four limbs. The man was very happy with the test. He said: "I can't go home tomorrow in my exoskeleton, but I've got to a point where I can walk. I walk when I want and I stop when I want."

醫(yī)生們說，他們還處于開發(fā)這項技術的早期階段。他們相信，機器人外骨骼將幫助殘疾人在未來過上更好的生活。技術將能夠從大腦接收信號來控制可穿戴機器人技術。下一步是拆下吊帶。一名共同領導外骨骼試驗的神經外科醫(yī)生對這款外骨骼套裝發(fā)表了評論。他說，這是第一個可以移動四肢的無線大腦控制系統(tǒng)。這個人對這個測試非常滿意。他說:“我明天不能穿著外骨骼回家，但我已經到了可以走路的地步了。我想走就走，想停就停。”
