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

I was living my version of the American dream.

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

我在聖路易斯附近的一個平凡小鎮長大

我有六個兄弟姊妹，我們都是乖小孩

高中畢業後，我為了讀書離開家

and graduated with degrees in accounting and German,

including spending a year of study in Austria.

I married my high school sweetheart, Jane.

Together, we raised four wonderful children.

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

為了讓事業蒸蒸日上 我工作認真，讀書也認真

eventually becoming a chief financial officer

in Silicon Valley, a job I really enjoyed.

地點在矽谷，我非常喜歡我的工作

My family and I bought our first and only home

我們買了我們第一棟房子，也是唯一的一棟

We were looking forward to rebuilding it,

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

一夜之間，我四肢癱瘓，無法說話

but with the help of an incredibly supportive family,

I finally decided life was still worth living.

I became fascinated with using technology

convert my tiny head movements into cursor movements,

偵測我頭部的小動作，當作滑鼠感應

I can surf the web, exchange email with people,

and routinely destroy my friend Steve Cousins

定期去破壞好友史蒂夫·卡曾斯

This technology allows me to remain engaged,

讓我覺得自己還存在在這世界上

One day, I was lying in bed watching CNN,

when I was amazed by Professor Charlie Kemp

of the Healthcare Robotics Lab at Georgia Tech

在喬治亞理工學院的醫療機器人實驗室

I emailed Charlie and Steve Cousins of Willow Garage,

我同時寫信給查理，還有 Willow Garage 的史蒂夫·卡曾斯

and we formed the Robots for Humanity project.

我們一起著手開始人道機器人計畫

I shaved myself for the first time in 10 years.

十年以來，我第一次幫自己刮鬍子

幫亞特蘭大的查理刮鬍子! (笑聲)

I saw new and previously unthinkable possibilities

both for myself and others in my circumstance.

為我自己，也為那些和我一樣的人

All of us have disabilities in one form or another.

所有的人，在某些程度上都有點殘疾

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

舉例來說，如果我們想要以時速60哩前進

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

我們都會需要靠一種叫 "車" 的輔助器幫忙

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

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

Since birth, we have both suffered from the inability

在查德的介紹下，我發現我可以輕易的

It was then I realized that I could also use

我也在這個時候發現，我可以利用

透過飛行器幫助長期臥病在床的人

讓他們感覺自己能移動、能掌控

Using a mouse cursor I control with my head,

只要在網路上點個鈕就可以完成

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

透過練習，我越來越熟悉這個介面

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

我還可以檢查我們屋頂的太陽能板 (笑聲)

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

是讓這台機器停在我們的籃球框上

I went even further by seeing if I could use
