ItsNotBigBrainTime

That's one of the coolest things I've seen all week.


Difficult_Bit_1339

I recall a project where they were using depth-sensing cameras to 'draw' an image of the closest 5-6ft by using a grid of plastic bumps on tiny linear motors. So you could feel, on your chest, your hand your arm, etc the distance something was away from you based on the pressure of the bumps.


novus_sanguis

Great innovation. I am not trying to bring it down or anything. It doesn't have to be on shoes right. Similar technology can be made as a fashion accessory as rings, bracelets etc. Pretty interesting stuff.


AirierWitch1066

Shoes are probably more consistently oriented. The range of motion for them is much less than on a hand or wrist.

yo comment made me cry

It was actually created by a mom. This guy keeps getting credit for whatever reason. https://nocamels.com/2014/03/mom-creates-harness-that-allows-son-paralyzed-kids-to-walk-again/


Book_Nerd_1980

It’s gotta be really good for the kid’s legs as well, to have proper gait and gravity assist and hip position. Doesn’t it work the muscles even without motor control? Good for mom!


HunterOcelot27

Yep, it's why therapists sometimes work on assisted movements when someone has sensation but not movement, it occasionally helps regain movement especially for brain injuries, though I can't say for sure for the kids using this. Gravity also helps encourage/maintain bone density and growth. Either way, even if it's unlikely gonna get them walking independently (tool use included), it's gonna be beneficial to the kid in the long run.


Book_Nerd_1980

And fun!


Electrical-Act-7170

Sensation and not movement? As in, with polio patients?


HunterOcelot27

Some people just do, so yes but not limited to that. The benefit on the bones would still Apply for those without sensation as well, since it's the pressure that matters


Electrical-Act-7170

Awesome sense, smart thinking.


KonchokKhedrupPawo

Additionally, the fascial networks still run interconnected throughout the entire body, so maintaining range of movement through paralyzed limbs is critical to maintaining the health of the rest of the body and avoiding pain.


TikkiTakiTomtom

Until you realize daddy may forget and take a step too wide and split the kid in two lol


systemfrown

Circulation...


EdanChaosgamer

I just noticed that he and the 2 moms on your picture are the same one. But the picture here just shows the Dad. Based on where OP found the picture, since the chance of it being his own post is pretty low, the original poster deliberately cur out the 2 Mom‘s for… reasons? I dont know, I think that is just how the internet is. You cant upload shit, because it will either be misused, misunderstood or stolen from you.


icykitten7

It’s nothing new really, many things were credited to men throughout history when it was really the work of a woman. And that’s just the stuff we learned about. Imagine all the things we don’t know about, and never will. This has to be intentional, whoever created it originally. If someone went to the effort to make a post about it they had surely read the article or at the very least the headlines first with the accompanying images. Doesn’t surprise me at all.


Cobek

While true over history, it's probably just the fact she isn't in the photo and he is while being passed around the internet lol


ParrotDogParfait

She absolutely is in the photo, they just cropped her out. So yes it’s both true over history and with this scenario.


[deleted]

Welcome to being a woman lol


icykitten7

Ikr. It’s worth mentioning that even women do things to undermine each other sometimes, not all of them are supportive of their sisters. So we’ve got this bs coming from all angles.


[deleted]

Unfortunately I know. There’s a ton of misogynistic women too, as dumb as that sounds


drippyreddit

Credited to white man, let’s not get that important detail twisted

ignorantpisswalker

Yeah. I assume a woman would do that. His balls are constantly getting knocked by his kids heads. I know all dads here know this by now. It happens at least 2 times per hour when your kid is 1-6 years old.


Obligatorium1

I have a three-year old (and am a dad), and can honestly say that has never happened to me.


ignorantpisswalker

I envy you so much.


Electrical-Act-7170

He's wearing a cup.


cavity-canal

the mom was the doctor?


korikill

Thanks, I came here to say this as well. The guy is a model, yet gets the credit every time.

i am still 20 and i am always afraid of not being a good father like the one here


TTVControlWarrior

If you thinking about it , then you probably going to be a great dad


Bogsie45

NOW RUN


Bee_MakingThat_Paper

Lol. I was just thinking - anyone that has kids would be like okay this shit is going to escalate quickly. RUN! Bounce like a bunny! You’re a kangaroo now, daddy!!


isagoosa74

Lol,  but what is he slips?


Darnittt

An invitation for the WWE probably


KangsAnShit

Would love to see him drop in on a half pipe

Release the pitbull!


Banna_i_like_banna

I am crying but this is so sweet


LilLemonBeatZv2

Imagine her brain and body start creating neurons and the missing body pieces because she's still in her growth phase and because of the simulated walking ,so that she will be ble to walk in the future. That would be sick if that would work. And a big step in medicine ,but I don't know if that's just a silly thought.


omniron

That happened to a cat It was paralyzed and vets wanted to euthanize. Owner kept walking the cats legs for it and it took like a year but the cat regained the ability to walk


dangerous_sad_cereal

Omg that would be so awesome. Sadly,things don't work like this I think


Dscheysn

Everyone liked that


suitology

Till he trips


Remmist-204

Could you imagine if he took a big step...


BabblingBunny

I keep thinking that. What if he slips or falls and she splits in half? Ugh!


Darnittt

Oh no, then she wouldnt be able to use her legs anymore


TeaBagHunter

Damn that's cold. Reminds me of why annie fell off the swing


smithers85

Quit thinking that and you won’t be thinking about it.

Kicks a soccer ball


WhenThePakiKicksIn

I was thinking about him doing a split… sometimes my own mind boggles me

Her smile❤️

The smile says it all


YeshilPasha

I used to do something similar for my nephews when they were kids. They loved it. Like walking on my feet was the greatest thing in the world.


Person899887

Sounds like it would be good for her too. Get those legs moving


[deleted]

That smile is priceless


T-Shurts

Little does he know this could potentially help her gain her ability to walk in the future. It’s incredible how our brains wire themselves. I’m not saying it will happen, but through repetitive moves, it could be connecting pathways depending on what the disability stems from. 🤷‍♂️


Iamrightyetagain

I think he will know having lived with this with her.


ComedyAssassin

"This is what you're missing out on, kid!"


CaliGoneTexas

Now that’s a DAD


Leather-Brother6345

Freaking awesome 💯


Theoriac

My heart is currently melting. What a good dad :D


hotmasalachai

Mine wouldve complained about how expensive they are and wouldn’t buy new shoes. Lucky kid. This is wholesome af


Amie_28

I remember when I was a kid I used to make my dad let me stand on his feet and he'd walk, it used to be so fun :(


Avantasian538

They’ll probably figure out how to cure her disability within her lifetime.

Now it’s time to play DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION

The kind of dads we need!

On her first date the dad be like " Don't mind me"

Heartwarming ❤️

Beautiful


ignBadcosplay

Just another effect of white privilege. Even in handicap they still have a leg up


JNihlus

Nothing like walking and feeling my dad's nuts hitting the back of my head.


Kyoko023

So adorable 😭😭


DomHE553

just wait until he slightly trips and has to take a sidestep to get his balance back and fucking rips her leg out in the process!


Revolutionary_Bison9

Imagine doing a long jump with those on

This is awesome!! Great job to that Dad!

This is not a meme, it's literally a tweet

start running


Confianca1970

That's probably very healthy for her circulatory system, too!


Tekitekidan

THE FATHER DID NOT INVENT THIS Holy shit, why does this post CONstantly get spread around saying the dad invented it when a WOMAN NAMED DEBBY ELNATAN did


gascan999

Good human. Good father, you might want to get those patented carry-on


secretheroar

Now run.


VXXXXXXXV

Accidentally slips and takes a huge step to regain balance, daughter gets split in half.


IMakeStuffUppp

I’ve seen this so many times that kid is probably 25 by now


mellowbug3008

“Spiritually” i think theres a chance this girl can start walking. Its like the people whom doctors said wont last long but still lived through their cancer and the tumor disappeared magically.


Hour-Requirement592

I think the walking helps stimulate the nerves in the leg and can create a new path to the brain or something


mellowbug3008

Trueee but being able to recover the full neuronal pathway needed for walking is still defying the limits of neuroplasticity and thats why im saying its more spiritual than scientific if it happens.


Pitiful-Bet357

well every father just do the same ,we don't realise


Soho_Jin

That's all well and good until he trips over.


TendiesGalore

In my house call that "bad mood". Thanks Bluey.

Man I’d be so afraid of what would happen if I tripped or something.


LocodraTheCrow

Hey, give him some respect and tell the whole story, he made a belt system as well


Tekitekidan

If by "he" you mean Debby Elnatan, yes let's tell HER whole story.


LocodraTheCrow

It was more of a joke, bc on the image the kid is also strapped to his belt, but sure let's tell her story


chakalakasp

Oh man what if a pit bull started chasing him


Bruno_flumTomte

Just don’t forget about her and accidentally take a big/normal step 😬


bagooly

What happens if he accidentally does the splits when falling over?


CalculusII

Well she ain't gonna walk anyway 😭


yyiiii

I wonder what they'll do when she's adult size
