I don’t want this I NEED it. Literally.I walk with a cane and my balance is shit.

That’s amazing. 🤩

💪

Remember Jason Alexander in Shallow Hal? Hahaha

now that's aging gracefully!

😳

Possibly Furry approved

Thats an Evolution step backwards tho. Robotic or not

I want a robot tail, one step closer to become my synth Sona =3

Oh perhaps Donny should order one asap

I want a robo-kitty tail!!!!!!

Trump could use one of these.

OMG, I want one right now. 😂

Me too!

Gonna be tough to maneuver in crowds.

retirement plan is coming together y’all this is superb news

Make it a kangaroo tail and you have a built in seat! Lol. Seriously though it presents new challenges to using a bathroom

Kangaroo tail? Genius!

Where can I get one? Forced to be one eyed for at least a month, my balance is shot to pieces.

He’s wearing it backwards.

But can you do this with it?

I always wanted a tail!

Commercial version when? How long til we get the science to graft it directly to my spinal cord so I can move it independently?

Good for drunks and kangaroo fighters

They're still working on a new chair to go with it.... 😁

🤨🤨

This looks like AI

The image is but the technology is real and still in development in Japan.

They are just trying to make catgirls a reality and selling it as some health solution I just know it!

I could definitely use one. I am not elderly but have always been a klutz and had balance issues. Besides, it would make me look cool.

Sign me up. Btw is there a choice of colors?

I’m not certain this will catch on

I’m in and the lovely wife, who has severe balance issues due to Parkinson’s, just clapped her hands in delight when I showed her that picture.

I want it too

In purple!

You’ll have to wait…

Switch that fucker to the front

WOW

Um, I'd stick with a walker.

'Here she is, the Super Luxurious Whatchamajigger or S-L-O-W for short'. It's safe to observe, that Thing 1 and Thing 2 will most certainly approve...

The secret is out. Now will want one! 🤔

That gives a whole new meaning to the calling the old guy at work "a dinosaur."

LOL. Still, I’m all for graceful aging. If I need a robo tail to stay upright it’s time to walk towards the light.

It should help me when I get super drunk in shibuya.

Wow, but it looks terrible!!! Well, if it’s helping , I don’t mind getting one too💕💕💕

Make it a wolf tail I'm in.

If I could get one styled like a crow's tail, I'd be fucking ecstatic!

Hello in, I'm Dad!

Is it a tall tale?

AI slop

Good luck hopping on and off public transit dragging that!

What a delightful exoskeleton

I wonder if it would help relieve some back pain caused by a heavy chest by putting a counterweight on your lower back...

My husband has Parkinsons on top of his Prostate Cancer. Balance is a giant issue. Just do not believe I could convince an old cowboy & farm hand of the tail. Even though the 1st glance makes sense.

That would cause havoc in Sainsburys.

This is awesome!

And when you want to sit down on a train? Or exit a train with automatic doors?

We spend millions of years evolving away from tails because we didn't think they were necessary and now we're rethinking this tail business because they're actually helpful??? Evolution is useless

Trump needs one of these bad.

Cool. Call me back when you can lean back on it like a stool, and hang from things.

This might be a bridge too far for some of us.

Me, too!

No.

Please, I wanna buy the proto-mechadendrite too!

🙋 sign me up!

Way better than a walker.

Glad it comes with a belt.

Could I order five of them?

Cat boys all growed up.

I guarantee kids are going to stick these in their ass.

Will we have innovation now?

Hook me up! Decades of extreme sports have given me wobbly pegs!

…and it gives your legs an extra workout carrying the weight. It’s a win-win for us oldies. If we can stand, we can walk with abandon.

They walk steadily, but frequently get caught in doors and can't get into cars.

Are there options for fur or scales?

N E E D

Yeah, but will it make my butt look fat?

ganyan talaga bat first world country, kung anu ano pinag gagagawa. haha. no hate though, good for them kaso ang bizarre naman neto.

Five limbs, no fear

it starts with an innocent tail....but before you know it we have elderly doc ocks wreaking havoc downtown!

m.youtube.com/watch?v=8qjz...

Ok I WOULD NOT wear that.

for us introverts, a FANTASTIC way to increase personal space.

Nice! I tell you - cyborg humanity is coming. Might as well accept it.

I might go for a trunk. Looks quite useful when elephants using theirs.

Now if they can figure out how to stop being so racist, they may be able to fix their chronic population decline by being more welcoming to foreigners.

The new trump 3rd arm... 😱

How do you sit down?

love it❣️

Impractical but interesting.

How about just a cane ?

This is clearly not meant to be something everyone would wear, just like not everyone is in a wheelchair. For the small number of people, whose lives will change, you probably will never see one in person.

I wonder if it would be used in rehab. Snap in spines for appropriate length?

The number of falls that my father in law has had due to just weakness, and losing balance, makes me wish this was available now. I would borrow it and see if I could walk a tightrope 😅

Still not sure. Think that I would rather have a walking stick.

Hmm. Can I get it in a "Stegosaurus" model with spikes on the end...poison spikes?

Where can you get one?

Think Trump needs one. He is having trouble walking a straight line

Looks odd but…any winged options? 😁

The Japanese Furries are jubilant

Amazing!!!

Let's get some horsepower on that baby! I want to be able to bitch slap around 6 traitor pedophiles at once.

Count me in

Second that!!

Me too. I want one. Please.

This is key for us neurospicy folx!

So cool much better than a cane until you sit

Spiderman seeing this crap

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Another level of being a dinosaur

Sweet. Do they make them for the front? Asking for a friend.🥸😬

Would be more awesome if it had the strength for me to lean back on it while I'm waiting in line or at a rally! 😁

If it's real I want mine to look like a tentacle 😋

Way to go!

Suddenly, we all will become furries ...the RAINBOW WILL PREVAIL!🌈🌈😂😂😂😭💀

Much nicer looking than a walker/rollator/frame.

You must wait until you are old

Oh no wait till FOX and NAGA make this into some weird mutation change allegation 🤣

Gosh what a great idea. With that thing I could walk with a drink in my hand.

I just watched the new Jurassic world film, do not follow suit. It just about knocked out of me my Dino love. Still, I’d get that tail.

The Walkman of the 2020s, no doubt.

It’s a kickstand!🙃

I WANT ONE!!!!

No idea if this is AI, but it's curious

❤️🤣

Especially useful in the overcrowded commuter trains of the major cities like Tokyo… “Keep off my ***” You know what I mean.

Hahaha!! Oops! I knock you down AGAIN?!?

The furries are ahead of their time.

I like it, but admit it would throw seating plans right out the window, to say the least.

i want one too

wait... this is AI, look at the trees, they all fuzzy and melting. wow, first time in a while i got fooled by AI gen

I have MS and I like this better than a cane for sure.

Evolution: You don't need tails anymore. You're terrestrial creatures that crouches in foliage. Humans: When I left you, I was but a learner. Now, I am the master.

No longer worrying if the pants make my butt look big…

psycho this guy trying to make yen

You'd better be prepared to be violated, cats and people will be wanting to play with that.

My first reaction was LOL. But upon further reflection, this could be really neat.

How cool is that?!

Very cool

Me too!

Useless

AI Slop

We're so cooked

That is funny. Side note, the tech is real even if the image isn't. www.pcmag.com/news/arque-i...

@aeoluxjorge.bsky.social Para la tablet

hasdhasdjkashdasdh

I had no idea 😔

Atleast you can admit you were kinda wrong

Yet, you admit so. 🙂✌🏻

The tech being real doesn't stop the image from being AI slop

"With Japan's population aging quickly, the nation would benefit from any gadgets that allow people to work longer into old age." ಠ_ಠ

I feel like the Japanese take the best care of their elders

They seem to do better than Western Nations. At a glance it seems like China is just as good if not better.

Capitalism speedrun

I feel like strapping tails on old people to help them keep balance has the potential to be adorable.

Cool tech! The image is AI slop.

>2019 dang

Wait ‘til the furries find out, they’ll be so excited. In a good way. 💙🐈‍⬛💙

Literally AI SLop

youtu.be/FF4Gn_xPRJs?...

what even is this video abt 😭😭😭

...back to our reptilian roots...

I want one, too!

Fuck that,I want the upgrade 😁

This is entertaining but if you look to our biological past chances are we had tails I actually was born with a small one which was cut off at birth you can spot the scar I am told

Brings an entire new meaning to getting some tail?? LOL

I could use this enstead of my umbrella. But sitting on park benches might pose a bit of a problem, no?

Might be a little unwieldy on the subway, but sure, absolutely

I only want a tail if it has a stinger on the end. Anyone who annoys me gets the scorpion sting.

OMG!!! Thats IT!!!!

www.pcmag.com/news/arque-i...

"Grandpa, what the hell?" "It's my robotic tail, it helps me walk. Do you like it?"

Thanks but I’ll pass.

Where do I sign up?

Is it wrong of me to imagine him walking to the classic Godzilla theme music?

If it is, I don't want to be right.

I'm 63 and I think I'll pass on having a tail installed

I can only imagine why?

Do they make big dicks? I'm just asking for a friend.

What? Looking to be the man from Nantucket??

Just turn it around

I was going to build a sprung stilt suit with a tail for balance. Big jumps and fast running was the goal. Silly, dangerous, but potentially awesome.

Trump needs one of those

unayshamart.wed2c.com/s/2BF6dyaTFAf

Too cool ! 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎🦖🦖🦖🦖

I want one!

O man, that will be something in crowded trains and streets!!! 😅

🤔

Got a bridge to sell ya

You mean I had my prehensile removed for nothing!?

Cool

Look it’s ….. Godzilla!!!

I have always wanted a tail! I envisaged either a mo key tail or a fluffy one but this’ll do!

Possibilities are endless.

I need this

This better be real, or I'll say nasty things about you.

It's JAPAN...wait a couple days...someone will fire a MISSILE at him...

does it come in fox shape?

This is truly what much of the world _could_ be. Our massive brain power and resources spent on making everyone’s lives rich. You see in cases like this - that innate ability trying to peek through the clouds. it is suppressed and stomped on by insatiable greed. Where do resources really go?

I could think of a thousand things to do with that.. like standing in line at the theater.. I wonder ..is it as nimble and agile as an arm?

Wow!! I want one . . . But how do you store it?

Let's hope it's not Japan's biggest secret to keep a lid on the truth about the invading giant butt worms from space..as they they desperately attempt to give a convincing backstory for it all. Nice try Japan. I think I may pass on that trend as a look though..

Sadly most of these things are AI memes based on nothing.

SEE!? THIS is what science is for people! And pretty pictures of space. And curing diseases and hunger. But ALSO robotic dinosaur tails for seniors!

(Feel free to sprinkle in missing commas. I was tired and in a hurry.)

Can we address the 400 lb gorilla in the room? How does he take a crap?

Lol it's on a detachable belt not permanently attached

I remember a young man that went to college with my son who always wore a tiger tail. I never found out his story, but I must credit him for having zest in his lifestyle.

I want one.

I want a ringed one like a lemur.

Interesting. Although I would hate to try to pass through a revolving door.
