thank you so much
so we talk about meetings
try a moment to think about this
simple gesture we do when
we meet other people
the greeting is also thought the greeting the
gesture of greeting has deep origins
in the history of our evolution
social and who has the meaning of
draw attention to the master on
ours but does not vote and disarmed to sign
of ours in our good
intentions
this gesture would mean precisely
look I do not want to hurt it
I will not use my hand the tool anymore
I possess potent for harm to
think about it, the hand is really one
instrument or better an organ
extraordinary the Austrian writer
heinz fischer wrote that the hand is
the true organ of the push begins and
of human evolution thanks to the hand
in fact they were writing, we came out
from the re history and on the hand are based
our Milan and our interactions
in fact, with the company there are many
the actions we do with ours
hands just tell us 10 use think
also to work with children
improve
this is especially true for us
Italians we have done
thesis stimulate an art that often in via
and sometimes
around with your hands we express
feelings
think of the sweetness of a ridge
before we play we struggle with our hands
we express the same create art
we play instruments indicated that precisely
there are many figurative expressions
that have to do with the hand to give
a hand or have victory in hand
or rooms rules hands but I said
the year is an extremely organ
important and we can predict that on the
that our hand is the bridge that we are
connects the rest of the world that allows us
of sm years spectators among the same
why not find it try for one
moment to think about how it could be
one of our day from the morning when
awakened in the evening when the di
sleep passed without being able to use the
our hands and that is so true
yet there are many people who a
cause of devastating medical conditions
they lose their life from the dawn tomorrow
think of the brilliant alytus
to muscular education and this list
unfortunately it is still very long one
God who will be invited to use their hands
It will evaluate the arrest of Understanding
man
I do not know often lose his own
addiction and with this thirst for loss
even the presale feels less loved
professor of pretty in a beautiful
careful that he said something that is
even work fundamentally he supports
my translation that active is a being
human can never be the least loved
rather it claims that the environment
artificial surrounding us to be
stopped that is the right technology e
a category is inadequate for
need 20 tv that should
benefit him
also support that through
innovation said no we could one
day transcend the ascent I do not know
you do not really make them effect
powerful and have changed dramatically
my way of thinking since when
I’m a child I’ve always been there
enthusiastic towards the
technology that has always had for me
the only sense of making life come true
better with time this my passion
it has been transformed into the desire to give
contribution and in the hope that in
no longer talk about disability in the future
during my studies as an engineer
mechanical and medical and finally robotic e
also thanks to the many hours spent in
play video games and watch movies
I am passionate about the so-called
enhanced exoskeletons and they are not
certainly the only one in this room that
he had never heard of it
these devices are real and
own wearable robots that increase
the motor skills and the strength of the
people wearing them mine is not one
original passion avoided
new think the first patent of
an enhanced exoskeleton dates back
none other than at the end of 1800 this
that you see is the first attempt to
make one dated to 1965 aside
of the general electric for itself
admission of tea rationality is not
but it happened but it was
an extremely springboard
important for the 50 years have passed
from this first attempt and more
one hundred from the first patent is sure that
in this time sought in the technicians of
all the world worked
incessantly and to the development of
these devices and have been made
literally giant steps
the term enhanced exoskeleton makes
think of a kind of skeleton or
armor external to our body
fed some contain
billions of these devices support
the shoes are based on reader materials
and to the composite fibers the fiber of
carbon precisely and are powered by
powerful electric motors that you need for
supporting the weight for the exoskeleton
himself and the person wearing it and
easy to think
these devices in a chain of
assembly to help workers lift
heavy loads to avoid injury
and that’s what they’re used for
in a bmw factory thanks
to the skeletons of being bionic though
it is not as intuitive at least for
me think that I want to wear one for
be able to embrace again
a loved one without being afraid of
crush it at least to terrify it
following this same concept from
a few years became popular of
lean to use soft materials
as structures the interface between the
systems
which means trivially the engines and
the line man is to transform
these zoe skeletons in past of
nervousness and zoe muscles or
muscular structures expert in ours
body is able to move ours
hardy also stage of real muscles and
own and limited are less robots
models is true but much safer and
comfortable of the rigid counterpart
this is an example to make you understand
what I’m talking about
this is a so-called exoskeleton
soft we worked during the
doctorate while I was in singapore
in practice it is a t-shirt where they come
let the leaders we call go by
artificial tendons through the
fabric that are connected to engines
which as you have seen are positioned
behind the back for the person who is
wear when these engines come
activated who these cables were and are in
able to move the upper limbs e
then the frame can be removed
that part visit that characterizes the
direct exoskeletons, which indeed
it is never possible to do without even gods
engines at least for those
conventional in the slam wheels
the university of harvard worked
to the design of a wearable robot
berlin we call for the good in
this robot there are no metal engines
and in fact when you wear you have the
feeling of wearing a very heartfelt
40 is indeed made of fabrics and of
very thin air chambers that come
inserted in exact jokes specialties
above the fingers when these rooms
of air are customized as
is active and is able to move the
hand of the person wearing it
it can be said that fabrics are engines
that when you activate sipre spending it
they are able to open and close them
our fingers being built
we can literally program in
these fabrics to behave like
we want
the second then as an air chamber
we ask to activate we can open or
close the hand of the person who is
is wearing
I said at the esa and therefore I am a
rob my marco and to activate it serves
of the simple compressed air not only
some put in contact with the body
this technology allows itself to
lower your dips drastically
materials to make a robot
the parties simply need tissues
and air chambers instead of steel or
carbon signature
moreover we drastically reduce or
technology costs reserves of
made
think that instead of using sockets
to the numerical control lathes between the
column we use but and I must say that
the thing that is extraordinary for me
because when I joined a
engineering I would never really
spirited to learn how to use
sewing machines right now is
a pilot study with volunteers is under way
to the combs spiani adhesioni preventive of
this study is to prove that the
how much is able to use
these people to be back in
able to manipulate objects of use
common
thanks in fact to this meeting between
harmonic and fabrics
we are great cultures a device
very light, sure to tend to
low cost
our purpose is to return
independence to these people and there
I assure you that there is nothing to fix
the hours spent the workshops the commitment
like the good feeling that you can
help these people above all
when in return I answer you
I can not say how I would like to close
with a reflection there is still a lot
way to go before filling the
lack of this artificial environment
that surrounds us but I hope that with
this chat of even convinced
that technology can be cured
I am convinced that to do it, they need it
two steps the first raise our
level of technology education
itself through education la
research and dissemination and the second and
lowering in complexity therefore for
example using fabrics and machines
sewing to make robots instead of
metals and 12 in the markets that the
technology can really break down those
barriers that today seem to us
insurmountable
I believe that technology can
really take us all the same thanks
