Superprecise so let me get this straight... this is a robot riding a bicycle?

Research, in 5 years when a robotic arm reaches in and repairs your heart valve better than any human hand could have done you will be glad that these geeks toyed about with this stuff.

Consider the cycling robot, piano playing robot and masturbating robot a side show / PR exercise to some genuinely useful research.

or...

we all know that the future is robot sex toys, beacuse all the guys working on them have more degrees then dates.

I agree with you on this, it's just that is seems perverse to have one machine using another separate machine and not just a robot with wheels. What do you think is wrong with my heart? should i get it checked out??

@aidan, damn i'd forgotten about arnie... git ouuuda!

Putting the robot fella on a bicycle anthropomorphizes the research - people respond to the perceived human traits.

A robot with wheels is less psychologically engaging to us humans, and easier to achieve, and these people are not selling 'easy' - but are selling 'clever bastardary'.

• it looks funny, like.

Much like the shutter on my Nikon D80 your heart has a limited actuation life, around 2,950,000,000 (~3 billion beats) - so in that respect you are counting down to it's failure with every beat.

If I were you I would have it replaced with a engine from a 1989 Austin Princess.
