While you could only imagine such things, one man from Asia had already a piece of a functioning bionic arm which he controlled by using his brain. And mind you, he's not like the multi-billionaire Tony Stark, he's just an ordinary man and the arm was only made using metal scraps.
Meet Wayan Sumardana, an Indonesian welder who suffered from a stroke about 6 months ago.
Man Who Was Paralyzed By Stroke Creates Himself A Mind-Controlled Bionic Arm From Pieces Of Junk!
The 31-year-old said he woke up one morning six months ago to find he had lost all feeling in his left arm.
"At first, I thought it was a light stroke, but my doctor couldn't explain what was happening. He said go to the shaman, but the shamans gave up too," he said.
He recalled that for two months he couldn't work at all. One day he saw his son crying because the poor lad didn’t have any money for snacks. That very moment, he knew he had to do something.
Obsessed with machine since childhood and with his knowledge in electrical engineering, the welder came up with an idea to make a bionic arm machine out of junk.
He then made a ‘neurotransmitter-like head band’ that send signals from his brain and amplified to his robotic arm.
