What activities require hand-eye coordination to live in daily life? Tons.
LMAO.
I guess not like ESSENTIALLY EVERY MOVEMENT WE MAKE and GOING ANYWHERE involves foot-eye coordination.
I love how you always support a certain viewpoint and distort facts to support it.
I love how you always ignore my post and don't even read it at all.
I just said, name off more than two things (driving and walking) that require foot-eye coordination. Good job reading the post, because you just said exactly what I did.
Here's a SMALL list of things that you can't do with your feet that you have to do with your hands; (some of these are only in modern times, but i've highlighted the essential ones from caveman times)
-making food (cooking, making a meal etc.)
-killing animals (for food)
-feeding yourself (using your hands to scoop/grab/put food into mouth)
-typing on a computer
-writing (papers, checks, notes, etc.)
-doing bookwork
-reading a book
-picking up objects (weapons, tools, etc.)
-carrying objects (food, animals, injured humans, tools)
-using a steering wheel
-using a stapler
-pushing objects (rocks, objects out of way)
-using a vaccum
-picking yourself up off the ground (yes, some of us can get up from lying down with legs only, but it's not too common)
-opening things (boxes, doors, cabinets, bags, etc.)
-using utensils (cutting etc.)
-putting things on your body (shampoo, soap, etc.)
-cutting your hair
-shaving your face/body
-putting deodorant on
-brain surgery (or hell any surgery of any kind)
-architectural planning
-building things (huts, houses, buildings, shelter)
-playing musical instruments (besides drum bass pedal and piano pedals)
-wiring up computers
-sautering computer chips
-sign language
-screwing in a lightbulb
-grabbing stuff (drinks, objects, mouse, tv remote, tools, keys etc.)
-turning things (keys into a car's ignition, keys in a door, a doorknob, etc.)
-pressing buttons (radio in a car, doorbell, tv remote, etc.)
Even if you take out all of the stuff that didn't exist in caveman times, a LOT of those are essentials for living (making food, feeding yourself, carrying tools, building shelter, killing food with weapons, etc.)
I mean, the whole fucking reason that the human race was able to survive back then against animals with claws and girth and speed was *because of being able to use tools that you could SHAPE and GRAB with your HANDS*.
To say that hand-eye coordination is something that isn't as natural as foot-eye coordination in human beings is hilarious; every mammal can walk and run, but only humans can operate with our hands as we can, only humans use as many things with our hands as we do, and if you count in modern time usage of things we do with our hands, that number multiplies into thousands of small and large uses.
I mean, think about it, to say that foot-eye coordination usage in humans even remotely approaches the hand-eye coordination usage in humans is hilarious.
P.S. They have prosthetic legs, they have wheelchairs. Both of these are good enough to get done what needs to be done (movement). Show me a cheap, prosthetic arm that can get done even 10% of that list above EFFECTIVELY (dropping your food 20 times isn't effective). You won't be able to find one for public use, because hands are used in MANY more ways than feet will ever be.
EDIT: I just realized i'm actually trying to prove that hands are more complex and used in more ways than feet are. I shouldn't even have to prove this. I'm done with this topic, gotta go prepare for tokyo tomorrow, gg guys
good luck to the arcade operator
