Sounds like bullshit to me.
It's not possible to "implant your consciousness" into a robot. they most they could hope for - and we are a long way from the ability to do so - would be to implant a programmed replica of an individual's consciousness into a machine. A replica, not the person's consciousness itself. The person's consciousness itself is too insubstantial, to undefined, too unpredictable to "implant" anywhere. They'd have better luck trying to catch a fart and paint it green.
So, if they ever get the ability to program replicas of consciousness, the consciousness itself will still do what they have done and and go where they have gone for millennia. Not into any machine.
This part is funnier still to me:
Baloney.
In order to build an articulated, self-powered machine, one has to know BEFOREHAND which muscles move what parts, and how to program them to interact to produce a particular "physical activity". Otherwise, you couldn't make the machine move properly. If you already know which muscles move which parts, no amount of "sensor data" is going to give you insight into what you already know.
Don't let 'em snow you - they're just talking shit to try and drum up investments.

Quote:Our sensor data can point to which muscles contribute to specific physical activities. We hope such data can be applied in the fields of medicine or athletics, where insight gained can be utilized for rehabilitation and training,

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
