This limb has the ability to automatically anchor to your surroundings, and stable you position before you start floating inside the space station.
In the plausible future, there is going to be a whole generation of humans living their life in zero-gravity. This kind of environment shift would totally reshape our understanding of space and body function.
When our hands and feet are no longer suitable for the task of controlling our movement in zero gravity. we need a new form of body extension
From the original concept to the final functional prototype, the limb has been upgraded 12 times to make every structure on it can cooperate perfectly under its context.
Control String –
The control string is like our muscle, drive the limb to move
The Rubber Band Structure –
The rubber band is like our flesh, don't have the ability to move the limb, but functions as a mechanism to prevent the limb curve too much.
The Limb Bone –
Inspired by the dinosaur tail, connecting with each other by joint ball, which let the limb have the power to conduct heavy load tasks.
This Augmented Limb prototype is one of the outcomes of the context —— how should we respond to the living environment change driven by fast-developing technologies.
When the evolution conducted by nature can't catch up with the speed of how we implement technology to send us into an environment full of uncertainty, what should we do?
The Space Coffin - Cheng's Funeral
It is incredible to believe, that everyone we love, every comfort bed story, and every society events were on this tiny blue planet.
I remember when I was a child after I realized the infiniteness of the universe, and how fiercely chaotic it is in a well-organized way. I got scared for a whole night and couldn't sleep.
After I grow older and have a much more deep understanding of what the pioneer had done to set our feet on another planet, I wish to be a pioneer, to help step further in what human means.
"we come from the dust of the galaxy,
We will come back to be the dust of the galaxy."
