A paralysed teenager will kick-off the football World Cup in Brazil using a revolutionary robotic bodysuit.
Scientists are building a hi-tech exoskeleton that will enable the severely disabled youngster to walk.
Tiny sensors implanted into his brain will detect thoughts about movement and then transmit them to motorised leg-braces.
The idea is part of the Walk Again project, a joint international effort spearheaded by leading Brazilian scientist Miguel Nicolelis.
The system is being tested on eight boys before one is chosen for June’s opening ceremony in Sao Paulo.
A source said: “It will show Brazil is at the forefront of the developing world, not only in sport but in science and technology too.”

據(jù)英國(guó)《鏡報(bào)》報(bào)道,一名殘疾兒童將為今年6月舉行的巴西世界杯開球。巴西科學(xué)家們正在研發(fā)一種高科技的骨骼服,能讓殘疾人士重新走路。目前此骨骼服正在八名巴西男孩身上進(jìn)行測(cè)試,最后會(huì)選定一名男孩,由他穿上服裝為世界杯開球。
這種骨骼服的工作原理是,將微型傳感器植入人的大腦,當(dāng)傳感器感受到運(yùn)動(dòng)后,就會(huì)將此意念傳輸給電動(dòng)的腿部支架,從而讓人走動(dòng)起來(lái)。這一發(fā)明是一個(gè)國(guó)際項(xiàng)目“重新行走”的一部分,由巴西科學(xué)家尼可雷里斯領(lǐng)頭。有消息說(shuō),這一成果將顯示出巴西不僅在體育運(yùn)動(dòng)方面居發(fā)展中國(guó)家前列,在科技上也是遙遙。
