Inverse Human (1996)

nverse Human (1996) Created by Peter Coppin, Michael Parris, and Martin C. Martin. Humans both shape and are shaped by their machinic surroundings. To embrace this idea, we created a robotic exoskeleton that surrounds the right arm of a human subject. The human subject uses a hand controller to move the machine encased arm. This attempt by the subject to move the encased arm programs the robot. After a time the robot begins to control the human arm based on its "learned" movements, thus "re-programming" the human wearer. This robot can also interface with standard telephone lines, allowing a human robot wearer to be controlled from any touch-tone telephone in the world.
