We've allowed hands that are either as simple as a hook for doing heavy work or hands that actually have fingers like a human hand that could do complex dexterity functions."
我們可把機器人的手做成簡單的鉤子，這同樣能做重活，或者做成像人類一樣長有五指的手來做復(fù)雜靈巧的工作。
At home, your Exoskeleton will help you with all sorts of manual labor. They will also let paralyzed and elderly people walk, even climb mountains. Eventually, this steel strong man may even go climbing by himself.
在家里，Exoskeleton能幫助你干任何體力勞動。它們也能幫助殘疾人和老人行走，甚至能幫助他們爬山。最后，這種鋼筋超人甚至可能會獨自爬山。
"It’s possible in the future that the Exoskeleton could not have the person in the cavities, but series of electronic systems and senor systems. So it actually becomes an autonomous robot."
“在未來，Exoskeleton很有可能不再依附于人類，而是有自己獨立的電力、傳感系統(tǒng)。那樣它就能變成獨立的機器人。”
Just how autonomous will these super strong robots become? Could they conceivably organize themselves into an army and turn against us? They will be a formidable enemy. Friend or foe, the Exoskeleton embodies our hopes and fears about tomorrow’s robots.
這些擁有超能力的機器人到底會獨立自主到什么程度？它們能自發(fā)地組織成一支軍隊，向我們宣戰(zhàn)嗎？他們會成為令人畏懼的強敵。是敵是友，Exoskeleton體現(xiàn)了人類對未來機器人的希望和恐懼。
"I think it's a window on the future. And it’s a matter now of just finishing the project."
“我認為它就是未來的一扇窗。目前最重要的就是完成這項工程。”
Owning a robot, especially a super-strong one is just one science fiction fantasy that may soon come true. What about having the power many of us have fantasized about-the power of X-ray vision.
擁有一個機器人，尤其是一個超能機器人，這在從前只是科幻小說里的幻想，但夢想可能很快變成現(xiàn)實。就拿我們曾經(jīng)想擁有的X射線視覺來說吧。
"X-ray vision obviously comes from superman. He just had the magic power to look right inside of anything, except for lead."
很明顯，X射線視覺來自于《超人》，他有看穿一切物質(zhì)的魔力，鉛除外。
George Stetton is the inventor of the sonic flashlight—a device that puts the power of X-ray vision in the palm of your hand.
George Stetton是聲控手電筒的發(fā)明者，這種裝置將X射線視覺搬到人們巴掌大的手上。
"You can look at your muscles, and tendons, and veins and your heart. It’s a very simple concept. It has an ultrasound probe and it has a little display, mounted on the ultrasound probe and a little mirror."
你可以通過它觀察你的肌肉，肌腱，還有靜脈以及心臟。這個概念很簡單。它帶有超聲波探測裝置，在探測裝置上面裝有一個顯示器和一面小鏡子。
The flashlight works by superimposing the image captured by the ultrasound onto what you are seeing on the outside. The process is called augmented reality. It’s capable of showing features up to six inches beneath the skin.
這種手電筒通過超聲波捕捉你所看到的外界事物，并將圖像層層疊加。這個過程就叫做增強實境。它能顯示皮膚下面6英寸的紋理特點。
