Silver

Silver by Iranian Designer Hadi Teherani and his words on this design:

I was keen to make technical complexity invisible and achieve the poetic level of perfect seating. A chair that is only used in an office and can always only express the word “office” was not enough for me. In particular I did not want an orthopaedic design with visible gears. Without complexity and depth of development design can outdate very quickly. Aesthetics without ethics tend to be deceiving.

HAL

HAL - Hybrid Assistive Limb- by Japanese(no wonder) Cyberdyne , is the world's first cyborg-type robot controlled by unique Hybrid System, i.e. integrated autonomous and robotic control system that provides human-like movement. It detects movement in advance via sensing biosignals on the surface of the skin. Though it adds 23 kg to your weight!(if we call it a bug) but is aimed at different environments - disaster sites - and could be applied for the people with disabilities. That's a big change in robotic development. Don't miss HAL in action.
