    Now imagine if this was your actual arm, so you weren't worried about the additional weight of stronger materials, and the stabbing/swinging motion was assisted by internal pistons exerting an equivalent force of power as to what a human sized mantis shrimp would be.... and then you've got the real deal ;D

      PhantomSavage this weapon seems more as a hazel to use.
      A bladed weapon in your arm, you would most likely go for a katana like blade, or a simple spear head.
      The human arm aren't ment to be used this way, a slashing weapon or a simple piercing weapon is far more efficient, in terms of usability.

    Watching this made me realize how much more effective this would be compared to just holding a sword. With a mechanical arm and a linkage to eye optics electronics, the pitch and adjustability of the blades dual levers allow for better accuracy and motorized leverage at impact, similar to a spring loaded trigger device. Add in a full synthetic muscle wrap, hydraulic pistons, structural mounting, and a much more solid foundation than a wrist and its a clear winner. Even using two hands the weak point is a grip, even augmented its still a mechanical point. This thing is attached to an internal titanium skeleton. Even better they are always there when not in use and non would be the wiser.

However, if you add artificial muscles/some kind of mechanical force multiplier, it COULD be a pretty nasty weapon. This specific weapon would definitely be a part of an entirely artificial limb, probably hidden inside the limb until necessary to deploy for combat.

      @@ShinKyuubi Yeah. The ability to see it is basically a medium convention. Something that thin would be impossible to see with human eye. Which doesn't mean it can't have something stuck on it (liquids for example) that is thick enough to notice. The 'shiny visibility' isn't entirely BS though, human eyes care about movement and reflection a LOT so it might be possible to spot if it's reflective index is high enough. But it's unlikely. Having a nice visible location for your wire to help with safe use makes total sense to me. Depending on how the wire works, it could tense enough (if it's a piezoelectric meta-material for example) to help you handle it safely. Given that monowire isn't going to be cheap, it's reasonable to assume a manufacturer would include drivers for HUD's to mark it's location in real time. At least, I'd make that assumption if I was laying down specifications for such an implant.

      @umbrascitor2079 Před 3 lety +2

      I think that would hamper the performance unless you had reinforcement on your arms and core to handle the wacky inertial effects.
      A weapon is easy to handle if it functions as and extension of your limb, but if the balance is actively shifting it's going to throw you off. Specifically in this case, some of that force that extends the blade forward is going to be wasted on pushing your arm and body backward, and your efforts to compensate for that push will reduce the amount of power and dexterity you can put into the blow. Your least awkward means of wielding it would be to hold your arm steady and let the moving blade do all the work, but then you're most likely losing power compared to a basic swinging motion anyway.
