DENPASAR - Almost the last few days, a simple man who worked in his garage in Nyuhtebel village, Karangasem, Bali has become a byword because the robot hand. Some people refer to his discovery as a deception alias mere hoax.
But with a relaxed, Tawan admitted to not make an issue of it. He only sought how to feed and educate their children with all his post suddenly paralyzed his left hand.
I Wayan Sumardana alias Tawan armed with information from the Internet and the knowledge gained during the study in the Department of Electrical Technical Secondary School (STM) Engineering, Denpasar, he began to assemble a robot hand since four months ago.
Tawan shows how the robot hand work. Mechanical or robotic assemblies mounted on the left hand connected to an electric circuit around his head.
"How to move the appropriate commands his own mind if you want to lift, will turn right or left," said Tawan in his workshop, Friday (22/1).
According to this 31 years old man, the robot hand can not be used by another person because of specially designed according to the needs and desires. He designed this tool with system electroencephalography (EEG). Previously he had never heard the name of this system, until later when a stroke, he was hunting for information on the internet.
According to the Oxford Dictionary, EEG is a technique for recording the electrical activity in different parts of the brain and convert this information into a pattern or picture, whether digital or recorded on paper which is named as an electroencephalogram.
In the case of Tawan, to help his left hand, then scanned by the tool head is in the right brain activity.
"It has been seven times I change the program," said Tawan.
His first experiments using the remote control transmitter. However, this idea fall because it is considered less flexible. The second experiment using Bluetooth.
However, he was not satisfied because it was the performance of the robot arm bothered if people Bluetooth enabled cell phone nearby.
The third experiment using the touch screen Android phone. Unfortunately, this makes the appliance is not functioning optimally and fast error or hangs.
"He said the Android smart course, but yes so, use this system instead want banging motion continues like that. Quick hangs," he added.
Another way that has been tried is the use of a motor accelerators. In this way the robot hand worked, but his waist so ill. This idea also only lasted one week.
Tawan ago had an interest in one another is judged good system to be applied to the brain computer interface (BCI). However, the tools and components, according to him, is quite expensive.
Another system that is tried is using a numerical program. Turns numerical program also expensive because it requires a number of tools, such as 3D printers, which are expensive. In addition, continued Tawan, the language is difficult to understand the program and several other supporting components are also expensive.
He targeted evaluate the performance of this tool in six months. Now, while the remaining two months.
"If you use an EEG, the brain is actually controlling not fully. But, we think, a new reaction. When controlled by the brain, may I have a headache. It's not, just tired," he said.
