(单词翻译)

A man who is paralyzed from below his shoulders has been able to walk using a robotic suit. The 28-year-old man could not move his arms, hips1 and legs after an accident. Doctors fitted him with a special robotic exoskeleton - this is a machine that covered his arms, legs and body. The machine was attached to the ceiling so the man could keep his balance and not fall over. He controlled the machine using high-tech2 sensors3 that were implanted near his brain. The man used his thoughts to tell the sensors to move the machine. His brain sent messages to the machine and it moved his arms and legs. He was able to walk a few steps using the machine even though he was paralyzed.

一名肩膀以下瘫痪的男士能够用机器人套装走路了。在遭遇车祸后,这名28岁的男士的四肢和臀部均无法移动。医生为他安装了一个特殊的机器人外骨骼——这是一个覆盖他的手臂、腿和身体的机器。这个机器被固定在了天花板上,这样他就可以保持平衡而不会摔倒。他使用植入大脑附近的高科技传感器来控制这个机器。他靠意念告诉感应器移动机器。他的大脑将信息传递给机器,然后机器移动他的四肢。即使瘫痪,他也能够利用这台机器走几步。

Doctors say they are in the early stages of developing this technology. They believe robotic exoskeletons will help disabled people to live better lives in the future. Technology will be able to pick up signals from the brain to control wearable robotic technology. The next stage is to remove the ceiling harness. A neurosurgeon who co-led the exoskeleton trial commented on the exoskeleton suit. He said it was the first wireless4, brain-controlled system to be designed that can move all four limbs. The man was very happy with the test. He said: "I can't go home tomorrow in my exoskeleton, but I've got to a point where I can walk. I walk when I want and I stop when I want."

医生表示这项技术还在研发的早期阶段。他们相信,机器人外骨骼将帮助残疾人在未来过上更好的生活。科技将能够接受来自大脑的信号以控制可穿戴机器人技术。下一步是拆掉天花板的吊带。一名共同领导外骨骼试验的神经外科医生对这款外骨骼套装发表了意见。他表示这是第一个可以移动四肢的无线大脑控制系统。这位男士很高兴参与测试。他表示:“虽然我明天不能穿着我的外骨骼设备回家,但我已经可以走路了。我想走就走,想停就停。”
