Translator: Ema Bilbija Zulic Reviewer: Selma Valjevac

Sarge Salman: All the way from Los Altos Hills, California,

Sarge Salman: Cak iz Los Altos Hills u Kalifoniji,

Mr. Henry Evans.

Gospodin Henry Evans.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

Henry Evans: Hello.

Henry Evans: zdravo.

My name is Henry Evans,

Zovem se Henry Evans,

and until August 29, 2002,

i do 29. avgusta 2002. godine,

I was living my version of the American dream.

zivio sam svoje verziju americkog sna.

I grew up in a typical American town near St. Louis.

Odrastao sam u tipicnom americkom gradicu u blizini St. Louis.

My dad was a lawyer.

Otac mi je bio advokat.

My mom was a homemaker.

Mama je bila domacica.

My six siblings and I were good kids,

Ja i mojih sestero brace i sestara smo bili dobra djeca,

but caused our fair share of trouble.

sa po nekom nevoljom tu i tamo.

After high school, I left home to study

Nakon srednje skole sam otisao od kuce da studiram

and learn more about the world.

i naucim vise o svijetu.

I went to Notre Dame University

Upisao sam univerzitet Notre Dame

and graduated with degrees in accounting and German,

i diplomirao u racunovodstvu i njemackom jeziku,

including spending a year of study in Austria.

ukljucujuci i godinu studiranja u Austriji.

Later on, I earned an MBA at Stanford.

Zatim sam, na Stanfordu, zaradio MBA stepen.

I married my high school sweetheart, Jane.

Ozenio sam se sa svojom skolskom ljubavi, Jane.

I am lucky to have her.

Sretan sam sto je imam.

Together, we raised four wonderful children.

Zajedno smo odhranili cetvoro divne dijece.

I worked and studied hard to move up the career ladder,

Naporno sam radio i ucio kako bih napredovao u karijeri,

eventually becoming a chief financial officer

i na kraju postao glavni finansijski direktor

in Silicon Valley, a job I really enjoyed.

u Silikonskoj dolini, posao u kojem sam stvarno uzivao.

My family and I bought our first and only home

Sa porodicom sam kupi svoju prvu i jedinu kucu

on December 13, 2001,

13 decembra 2001. godine,

a fixer-upper in a beautiful spot

na predivnoj lokaciji u Los Altos Hills, Kalifornija,

of Los Altos Hills, California,

kojoj je trebalo par popravaka,

from where I am speaking to you now.

i odakle vas se sada javljam.

We were looking forward to rebuilding it,

Radovali smo se preuredenju kuce,

but eight months after we moved in,

kada sam osam mjeseci nakon selidbe

I suffered a stroke-like attack caused by a birth defect.

dozivio udar poput srcanog izazvanog urodenom manom.

Overnight, I became a mute quadriplegic

Preko noci sam postao nijemi kvadriplegicar

at the ripe old age of 40.

sa 40 godina duboke starosti.

It took me several years,

Trebalo mi je nekoliko godina,

but with the help of an incredibly supportive family,

ali uz pomoc i poporu nevjerovatne porodice,

I finally decided life was still worth living.

konacno sam odlucio da je zivot jos uvijek vrijedan zivljenja.

I became fascinated with using technology

Postao sam fasciniran koristenjem tehnologije

to help the severely disabled.

koja pomaze osobama sa teskim invaliditetom,

Head tracking devices sold commercially

Uredaj koji prati moje pokrete glavom i koje prodaje

by the company Madentec

kompanija Madentec

convert my tiny head movements into cursor movements,

pretvara moje male pokrete glaveu pokrete misa,

and enable my use of a regular computer.

i omogucava mi koristenje racunara.

I can surf the web, exchange email with people,

Mogu surfati webom, ramijenjivati email-e,

and routinely destroy my friend Steve Cousins

i redovno unistavati svog prijatelja Steve Cousins-a

in online word games.

u online igricama.

This technology allows me to remain engaged,

Ova tehnologija mi omogucava da ostanem ukljucen

mentally active,

mentalno aktivan

and feel like I am a part of the world.

i da se osjecam kao dijelom svijeta.

One day, I was lying in bed watching CNN,

Jednog dana sam iz kreveta gledao CNN,

when I was amazed by Professor Charlie Kemp

kada me zadivio profesor Charlie Kemp

of the Healthcare Robotics Lab at Georgia Tech

iz Healthcare Robotics Lab-a na Georgia Tech

demonstrating a PR2 robot.

sa demostracijom robota PR2.

I emailed Charlie and Steve Cousins of Willow Garage,

Napisao sam mu email i sa Steve Cousins iz Willow Garage

and we formed the Robots for Humanity project.

smo formirali projekat Roboti za covjecanstvo.

For about two years, Robots for Humanity

U dvije godine Roboti za covjecanstvo

developed ways for me to use the PR2

su razvili nacine za mene da koristim PR2

as my body surrogate.

kao svog tjelesnog surogata.

I shaved myself for the first time in 10 years.

Po prvi puta sam se obrija u 10 godina.

From my home in California,

Iz svoje Kalifornijske kuce

I shaved Charlie in Atlanta. (Laughter)

sam obrijao Charlie-ja u Atlanti. (Smijeh)

I handed out Halloween candy.

Dijeli sam Halloween slatkise.

I opened my refrigerator on my own.

Samostalno sam otvorio frizider.

I began doing tasks around the house.

Poceo sam obavljati poslove po kuci.

I saw new and previously unthinkable possibilities

Uvidjeo sam nove nezamislive mogucnosti

to live and contribute,

kako da zivim i doprinesem,

both for myself and others in my circumstance.

sebi i drugima u mojoj situaciji.

All of us have disabilities in one form or another.

Svi mi posjedujemo invalidnosti u nekoj formi.,

For example, if either of us wants to go 60 miles an hour,

Na primjer, ako netko zeli ici 60 milja na sat,

both of us will need an assistive device called a car.

trebat ce mu pomocni uredaj koji zovemo auto.

Your disability doesn't make you any less of a person,

Vasa invalidnost vas ne cini manjom osobom

and neither does mine.

a tako ni mene moja.

By the way, check out my sweet ride. (Laughter)

Usput, pogledajte moje prevozno sredstvo. (Smijeh)

Since birth, we have both suffered from the inability

Od rodenja svi mi patimo odnesposobnosti

to fly on our own.

da samostalno letimo.

Last year, Kaijen Hsiao of Willow Garage

Prosle godine, Kaijen Hsiao iz Willow Garage

connected with me Chad Jenkins.

me je spojio sa Chad Jenkins-om.

Chad showed me how easy it is

Chad mi je pokazao kako je lako

to purchase and fly aerial drones.

kupiti i upravljati vazdusnim dronom.

It was then I realized that I could also use

Tada sam shvatio da bih mogao koristiti

an aerial drone to expand the worlds

vazdusni dron kako bih prosirio svijet

of bedridden people through flight,

ljudi prikovanih za krevet sa letenjem,

giving a sense of movement and control

dajuci im osjecaj kretanja i kontrole

that is incredible.

a to je nevjerovatan osjecaj.

Using a mouse cursor I control with my head,

Pomocu misa kojeg pokrecem glavom,

these web interfaces allow me

ovi web interfejsi mi omogucavaju

to see video from the robot

da gledam video sa robota

and send control commands

i dajem komande

by pressing buttons in a web browser.

pritiskajuci opcije u web pretrazivacu.

With a little practice, I became good enough with this interface

Uz malo prakse sam postao dovoljno dobar sa interfejsom

to drive around my home on my own.

da ga samostalno upravljam po kuci.

I could look around our garden

Pogao sam da razgledam vrt

and see the grapes we are growing.

i pogledam grozde koje uzgajam.

I inspected the solar panels on our roof. (Laughter)

Pregledao sam solarne panele na krovu. (Smijeh)

One of my challenges as a pilot is to land the drone

Jedan od izazova za mene pilota je da sletim

on our basketball hoop.

sa dronom na kosarkaski kos.

I went even further by seeing if I could use

Otisao sam i dalje, koristeci monitor

a head-mounted display, the Oculus Rift,

pricvrscen na glavu, Oculuc Rift,

as modified by Fighting Walrus,

kojeg je modificirao Fighting Walrus,

to have an immersive experience

kako bih dozivio potpuno iskustvo

controlling the drone.

u kontroli drona.

With Chad's group at Brown,

Sa Chad-ovom grupom na Brown univerzitetu,

I regularly fly drones around his lab

redovno letim sa dronom po njegovom laboratoriju

several times a week, from my home 3,000 miles away.

nekoliko puta sedmicno, iz moga doma udaljenog 3,000 milja.

All work and no fun makes for a dull quadriplegic,

Samo rad bez zabave zatupljuje kvadriplegicara,

so we also find time to play friendly games

tako da nedemo i vremena da igramo

of robot soccer. (Laughter)

robotski futbal. (Smijeh)

I never thought I would be able to casually

Nisam mogao pomisliti da cu biti u stanju

move around a campus like Brown on my own.

da se samostalno krecem po kampusu Brown univerziteta.

I just wish I could afford the tuition. (Laughter)

Kad bih si jos mogao priustiti skolarinu. (Smijeh)

Chad Jenkins: Henry, all joking aside,

Chad Jenkins: Henry, salu na stranu,

I bet all of these people here

kladim se da bi svi ovi ljudi ovdje

would love to see you fly this drone

voljeli da te vide kako upravljas ovim dronom

from your bed in California 3,000 miles away.

iz svog kreveta u Kaliforniji, udaljenog 3,000 milja.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

Okay, Henry, have you been to D.C. lately?

Ok, Henry, da li si skoro bio u glavnom gradu?

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Are you excited to be at TEDxMidAtlantic?

Da li si uzbuden sto si na TEDxMidAtlantic?

(Laughter) (Applause)

(Smijeh) (Aplauz)

Can you show us how excited you are?

Mozes li nam pokazati koliko si uzbuden?

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

All right, big finish.

A sada veliki finis.

Can you show us how good of a pilot you are?

Pokazi nam svoje pilotske vjestine.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

All right, we still have a little ways to go with that,

Dobro, ovo moramo jos malo uvjezbati,

but I think it shows the promise.

ali mislim da obecava.

What makes Henry's story amazing

Ono sto cini Henrijevu pricu zapanjujucom

is it's about understanding Henry's needs,

je u vezi sa shvatanjem Henrijevih potreba,

understanding what people in Henry's situation

razumijevanjem sta ljudi u Henrijevoj situaciji

need from technology,

trebaju od tehnologije,

and then also understanding

kao i razumjevanje

what advanced technology can provide,

sta napredne tehnologije mogu pruziti,

and then bringing those two things together

a zatim spojiti te dvije stvari

for use in a wise and responsible way.

za pametnu i odgovornu upotrebu.

What we're trying to do is democratize robotics,

Mi pokusavamo demokratizovati robote

so that anybody can be a part of this.

kako bi svi mogli biti dio ovoga.

We're providing affordable, off-the-shelf robot platforms

Nudimo dostupne robotske platforme

such as the A.R. drone, 300 dollars,

poput A.R. drone, za 300 dolara,

the Suitable Technologies beam, only 17,000 dollars,

senzore od Suitable Technoligies za samo 13,000 dolara,

along with open-source robotics software

zajedno sa open-source sftverom

so that you can be a part of what we're trying to do.

kako bi i vi mogli biti dio ovoga sto radimo.

And our hope is that, by providing these tools,

Nadamo se da cete, koristeci ove alate,

that you'll be able to think of better ways

moci da nadete bolje nacine da

to provide movement for the disabled,

omogucite nepokretnima da se krecu

to provide care for our aging population,

da obezbjedite brigu sa populaciju koja stari

to help better educate our children,

da bolje educirate djecu,

to think about what the new types

da razmislite o kakve bi mogli biti

of middle class jobs could be for the future,

vrste novi poslovi u buducnosti,

to both monitor and protect our environment,

da se nadgleda i stiti okolis,

and to explore the universe.

i da se istrazuje svemir.

Back to you, Henry.

A sada ponovo do tebe, Henry.

HE: Thank you, Chad.

Henry: Hvala, Chad.

With this drone setup, we show the potential

Sa ovakvom postavkom drona pokazali smo potencijal

for bedridden people to once again be able

koji se pruza ljudima prikovanim za postelju

to explore the outside world,

da ponovo istrazuju vanjski svijet,

and robotics will eventually provide

a robotika ce na kraju pruziti

a level playing field

igraliste

where one is only limited by their mental acuity

gdje cemo biti ograniceni samo svojom vlastitom mentalnom ostrinom

and imagination,

i mastom,

where the disabled are able to perform

gdje su nepokretni u stanju da izvrsavaju

the same activities as everyone else,

iste aktivnosti kao i svi drugi,

and perhaps better,

a mozda i bolje,

and technology will even allow us to provide

a tehnologija ce pruziti izlaz

an outlet for many people who are presently

za mnoge ljude koji se trenutno smatraju

considered vegetables.

biljkama.

One hundred years ago,

Prije stotinu godina,

I would have been treated like a vegetable.

ja bih bio tretiran samo kao biljka.

Actually, that's not true.

Ustvari to nije tacno,

I would have died.

Umro bih.

It is up to us, all of us, to decide how

Na nama je, na svima nama, da odlucimo

robotics will be used, for good or for evil,

kako cemo koristiti robote, za dobro ili zlo,

for simply replacing people

da li da jednostavno zamjene ljude

or for making people better,

ili da ih ucine boljim,

for allowing us to do and enjoy more.

da nam omoguce da vise cinimo i uzivamo.

Our goal for robotics is to unlock everyone's mental power

Nas gol za robotiku je da otkljuca mentalnu snagu svih nas

by making the world more physically accessible

cineci svijet fizicki dostupnim

to people such as myself and others like me

ljudima poput mene i drugih slicnih meni

around the globe.

sirom svijeta.

With the help of people like you,

Uz pomoc ljudi poput vas,

we can make this dream a reality.

ovaj san moze postati stvarnost.

Thank you.

Hvala.

(Applause)
