As much as we’d like to think that we’re entering an era of autonomous robots, they’re actually still pretty helpless. To keep them from falling down all the time, a human’s fast reflexes could be the ...

Robotic boots providing superhuman reflexes can help your balance. Our new study shows that the key to augmenting balance is to have boots that can act faster than human reaction times. When people ...

Human beings are born with innate reflexes that come from deep within our primitive brain. As the prefrontal cortex develops within the first year of life these reflexes disappear from the central ...
