"Only when we recognize there is a problem, can we devote resources to solving it. The problem is, not many people can do what we do, and if those that can won't, who will?"

Robotic Technology For The Sake Of Humanity!

Plain and simple this is our mission! We advance, invent, and develop new technologies to aid human kind for the sake of humanity.

robot-1

It will take some writing to explain it but to give you a teaser, it has to do with NASA, Robots, and helping those who can't walk… walk again!

We have received a ton of inquiries asking what the connection is between a real estate investing business and all these state-of-the-art robotics we always talk about.

Let me shine some light on this.

I (Jerryll) am a robotics scientist. I have worked for IHMC (The Institute for Human and Machine Cognition), NASA, and IIT (Italian Institute Of Technology).

Often Governmental institutes like NASA and even independent research institutes like IHMC depend on funding from the government to further research and develop these advanced technologies we as humans so desperately need. During my career, on several occasions, funding had completely been halted crushing the hopes of those in need of this technology.

With profits from our flips, I am funding my robotics research to develop technology to aid paraplegic people and enable them to walk again.

I was the lead engineer and scientist developing state-of-the-art robotics technology to improve humanity. At NASA and IHMC I worked on exoskeleton technology. The exoskeleton robot enables mobility assistance for paraplegic people, gravity compensation and exercise devices for astronauts in space, and an aid for rehabilitation purposes.

It basically provides the motor function to a paraplegic user. In simpler terms, it provides the muscle to be able to walk again. The exoskeleton (exo for short), grabs the user's legs at the thighs and shin and guides the user through a "normal" walking gait enabling the user to walk again.

This has more benefits than just being able to walk again. Sitting for long periods in a wheelchair causes further health issues. Bones not being loaded and muscles not being flexed and stretched cause bone mass loss and muscles with be stiff. Having the user standing and their bones loaded (the exo carries its own weight but does not carry the user's weight, and thus their bones are indeed loaded), has many health benefits to a paraplegic person.

Jerryll is an ex-IHMC (Institute for Human and Machine Cognition) robotics scientist with impressive accomplishments under his belt. He has worked for NASA, aiding astronauts explore other planets, making paraplegic people walk again, and replacing humans with robots in dangerous situations (think rescuing people from a burning building).

Jerryll is a leading force behind exoskeleton technology. This technology aids people to walk when they are paralyzed from the waist down, speeds up recovery time during the rehabilitation process, and helps the elderly with mobility problems.

Well, we suppose why try to explain with words when we can show with pictures, and video!

When I was tasked to develop a robotics suit to help wounded soldiers walk again, to me, it was a very amazing, fun, and very challenging project. It was funded by ONR, specifically for soldiers with lower extremity injuries. It was for a good cause but mainly it was just fun for me to work on such sci-fi projects.

When the first exoskeleton was nearing completion, it was time to find participants to test the robot. Here is when I met Mr. Daniels. I was never close to anyone in his condition and my work was very disconnected from it all. I had a task and I fulfilled that task.

Mark changed all that. I saw how hard it was for him to be in a wheelchair. It wasn't hard for him anymore, as he got used to it. But simple things like changing a lightbulb, grabbing your daughter, and swinging her around were tasks impossible for him. It completely changed the way I looked at my job. It became a mission. When we first enabled Mark to walk again after years of wheelchair confinement, we did an interview with him. We asked him what he was looking forward to the most being able to walk again.

We expected answers like, "to run, jump, climb a tree again:

To my utter surprise, he simply said: "to stand and be at eye level talking to someone".

He just didn't want to be looked down on when people talked to him being in a seated position.

It is funny how one's perspective changes when something isn't just a task anymore. When you get to know see and feel the people you are doing it for. Needless to say, Mark and I formed an inseparable bond.

I was determined to build better robots, lighter, and stronger, to enable people like Mark with a better life!

Always Roadblocks…

No matter the goal, there are always forces that work against you. But where there is a will, there is a way!

We have always relied on government funding for further research. Then the inevitable happened. The government put a halt on robotics hardware funding. Thus all that was accomplished was to give people like Mark a taste of freedom and take it away from him. Unacceptably cruel.

So I quit my job and started this business to earn capital to fund my own robotics research institute where I control funding, not government, no private sponsors, just me! No one can tell me where to spend the money and pure advancement of technology for good in the world wouldn't depend on anyone else but me.

Look How Far We Have Come!

Replacing humans with robots is not always a bad thing. Imagine saving 15 people from a burning building without the risk of putting more lives at risk doing so. Introducing the Disaster Relief Humanoid, "WALKMAN". A 6ft awesome humanoid robot that can walk, open doors, drive cars, and use human tools that can replace humans in dangerous environments and do any task a human can do. Imagine the possibilities and the lives that no longer have to be put at risk!
