No longer content to wait for the human race to develop New Type abilities, Researches at Skynet front Osaka University are developing a real life Psycommu System (Amuro pilots the RX-93 Nu Gundam with the Psycommu System) that controls robotic body parts through the power of the mind. Researches are hoping to enlist the aid of patients already scheduled for brain surgery to place electrodes on their brain meats to record the electric activity associated with moving their limbs. They hope to use that data to help them create an interface that would allow patients to control robotic limbs in real-time with their brain meats.
Well played, Skynet. By pretending this research is intended to help the injured and elderly, you have free reign to test the limits of our brain meats. Pretty clever.
