FDA Gives Robots Permission to Sew Hair On Your Scalp

Balding sucks. But will you trust the machines to repair your scalp? The FDA does, which is why they approved this piece of robotery to perform hair transplants. It's name is ARTAS, and it lives in your dermatologist's office.

If you have straight hair that's brown or black and you want more if it, you can sit in ARTAS' lap, at which point it will massage your scalp (along with a few "dermal punches" thrown in for good measure). A year later, you'll have a scalp full of healthy hair, or so the story goes.

Hopefully I never have to consider using this, but still, interesting to watch technology slowly invade every waking event in our lives. Isn't it awesome!?!

Robots start by just sewing in our hair, then they are ripping off our scalps and using us for batteries!

It would be nice if they can fly and hunt down bald people and plant hair in their heads
