Scientists Build Bionic Man Using Artificial Organs and Body Parts
Technology seems to speed up at a very quick- almost alarming – rate every year. How quickly will it be until technology matches up with the functioning of a human body? With this new experiment, which will be the subject of a documentary on the Smithsonian Channel, some expect that it will not be very long.
“(It’s) an attempt to showcase just how far medical science has gotten,” Richard Walker, the lead Roboticist on this very intriguing project, stated.
A team of engineers have assembled a bionic man that uses artificial organs, limbs, and other body parts. It boasts a functioning heart, artificial kidney, lungs, and pancreas. Some of these parts, though, are still in development as they usually need human connection to function.
Bionic Man With Functioning Organs
It stands at about six and a half feet tall, and can sit, stand and walk with the help of a Rex machine, which is used for people who cannot walk due to spinal injuries. It is said the bionic man has about 60-70% of the function Read more…
