JE DEVIENS UN CYBORG

We Aren't Enough

In this section, the speaker talks about how humans are never content with themselves and are always trying to improve.

Humans Are Never Content

• Humans are not enough for themselves.

• People were never content with what they were and will probably never be.

• The speaker is no exception and is constantly trying to improve himself.

Meet Neil Harbisson

In this section, the speaker introduces Neil Harbisson, a cyborg artist who has redefined what it means to be human.

Neil Harbisson's Antenna

• Neil Harbisson has an antenna that pops out of his head which allows him to hear colors via bone conduction.

• He suffers from achromatopsia and cannot see color but can now hear them thanks to his antenna.

• He is the first cyborg in history and started a movement that the speaker wanted to be part of.

Creating New Senses

In this section, the speaker talks about how some people are interested in cybernetics and want to make it more accessible.

Equipping Ourselves With New Senses

• The speaker discovers an organism that created a product allowing people to equip themselves with a new sense that helps them get their bearings based on a new reference point.

• The product is a casing that vibrates each time you face north, allowing you to locate yourself without having to think about where north is.

Becoming A Cyborg

In this section, the speaker talks about his experience becoming a cyborg and getting a new sense.

Getting A New Sense

• The speaker gets a casing put on his body that vibrates each time he faces north.

• He undergoes a procedure to implant the casing under his skin without anesthesia.

Going To New York As A Cyborg

In this section, the speaker talks about traveling to New York as a cyborg.

Traveling To New York As A Cyborg

• The speaker decides to travel to New York not as a human but as a cyborg.

• He calibrates his device by turning around until it understands where north is.

• For calibration to be good, it requires being in an area where nothing is magnetic or metallic.

Conclusion

In this section, the video concludes with shots of New York City.

Shots Of New York City

• Shots of various locations in New York City are shown.

Music and Sushi

The speaker is in a place called "Chelsea Market" where they hear electronic music and see vegetarian sushi.

Electronic Music and Vegetarian Sushi

• The speaker hears electronic music.

• They are at Chelsea Market, where they see vegetarian sushi.

Calibration in Bryant Park

The speaker goes to Bryant Park to calibrate the device. They need a spot with no magnetic or metallic interference, so they decide to go to a park.

Finding a Spot for Calibration

• The speaker needs to find a spot for calibration.

• They decide to go to a park for better calibration.

Calibrating the Device

• The speaker plays acoustic music while calibrating the device.

• After calibration, the device vibrates when facing north.

• The speaker decides not to change the calibration and proceed with the experiment.

Conflict Between Perception and Sensor

While walking straight, the device indicates that the north is not straight ahead. This creates conflict between what the speaker perceives and what the sensor indicates.

Conflict Between Perception and Sensor

• While walking straight, there is conflict between perception and sensor readings.

• Using their phone's compass, they realize that they made a slight curve while walking straight.

• Speaker thinks that their body will eventually trust the sensor readings.

Vibrations in the Metro

The speaker is in the metro and notices that the device vibrates even when they are not facing north. They suspect that it may be due to magnetic interference.

Vibrations in the Metro

• The device vibrates even when not facing north.

• Speaker suspects that there may be magnetic interference in the metro.

Meeting with Selim

The speaker meets with Selim, who has experience working with similar devices. However, he is unavailable, so Zac Efron accompanies them instead.

Meeting with Selim and Zac Efron

• Speaker plans to meet with Selim for advice on how the device works.

• Since Selim is unavailable, Zac Efron accompanies them instead.

Les capteurs dans les téléphones

Dans cette section, Selim et Cyrus discutent des différents types de capteurs que l'on retrouve couramment dans les téléphones.

Les trois types de capteurs

• Les trois types de capteurs courants dans les téléphones sont l'accéléromètre, le gyroscope et le magnétomètre.

• L'accéléromètre mesure l'accélération par rapport à l'axe vertical.

• Le gyroscope mesure la vitesse angulaire, comme lorsque vous tournez sur vous-même ou marchez.

• Le magnétomètre mesure comment est projeté le champ magnétique terrestre dans les axes du référentiel.

Pourquoi avoir trois capteurs ?

• Chacun des capteurs est bon pour mesurer une certaine grandeur mais peut faire des erreurs dans la mesure d'autres grandeurs.

• Les comportements complémentaires des différents capteurs permettent de développer des algorithmes qui combinent intelligemment ces données pour obtenir une mesure plus juste.

La complexité des sens humains et technologiques

Dans cette section, Selim et Cyrus discutent de la complexité des sens humains et technologiques.

La complexité des sens

• Nos autres sens tels que la vue, le goût et le toucher sont également très complexes.

• Selim se pose des questions sur comment ces innovations vont changer notre monde, créer des inégalités et bouleverser ce que la nature a mis des millions d'années à construire.

Devenir un cyborg

• Cyrus se demande si nous devrions nous contenter de ce que nous sommes ou si nous devrions embrasser la technologie au point de l'insérer dans notre corps.

• Il se demande également comment ces innovations vont changer le monde et créer des inégalités.

Conclusion

Dans cette section, Selim et Cyrus concluent leur discussion.

Les lunettes

• Cyrus mentionne qu'il porte des lunettes, qui ne sont pas naturelles.

Vision Impairment

In this section, the speaker mentions that they have a visual impairment.

Visual Impairment

• "Je suis censé mal voir" which translates to "I am supposed to see poorly."

This is the only statement in this section.
