A new silicon chip created by Kareem Zaghloul at the University of Pennsylvania, US will be an eye implant to let the blind see (no longer will external cameras be needed). It’s said that around 700,000 people are diagnosed with macular degeneration each year and 1.5 million suffer from retinitis pigmentosa. The new […]
I’ve said before, that we are already on a firm path to our human evolution into cyborgs. Already we have functional bionics and mechanical devices controlled by our thoughts.
Along with bionic implants, we are also starting to hear more about robotic/mechanical augmentation. Such as the the story at LiveScience about a new Stand-Alone Wearable Power […]
Wired News has a new article entitled “A Question Of Mind Over Matter” which talks about some cool advances in bionics.
The so-called biohybrid system sports a power pack and computer all contained within the prosthesis and uses sensors to allow more realistic movements than static, strap-on devices. The first systems have noninvasive sensors attached to […]
