00:00So first it's designed to help people. So there are two modes we can use it. One is

00:07passive help. There are people who can still move but are losing step by step the ability

00:13to use their muscle, they're losing power. So the device is going to assist you when you move.

00:20Can you share with our audience what's your experience? Yeah so I'm only very slightly

00:24moving my arm but it feels like there's a superpower behind my joint that is doing all

00:28the hard work. So this is also a brain scan that we launched at a fortune event back in 2019 in

00:39Guangzhou China. It's brain sensing earbuds and we can leverage them to do what people would call

00:47mind control. In that case it's control that is done with clenching because the technology can

00:55adapt to what you can do. Some people like Ellie can focus and can do real mind control.

01:02One of our participants in the Olympic torch relay, she has a cognitive disability and she

01:08cannot focus enough. So we had to tailor the interface to measure her facial expressions

01:14and also the fact that she's clenching in order to be doing what we're going to do now which is

01:20me by clenching providing you more assistance. Oh wow yeah that's way stronger.

01:28Wow and so this could be installed at someone's workstation for example if they needed help at

01:33work, it could be in their home, all different use cases. Absolutely and this is the goal

01:40is to provide assistance to everyone.
