Bionic brains, anyone?

[Zenox]

Can one order Bigger Better Faster....Reproduction Organs or limbs ?
Just asking not that i need any O.o

[Tharisfal]

Seen him before on Discovery quite interesting. After reading a bit I realize that it isn't all that complicated but it's quite an achievement.

[EvilEggCracker]

Whoa... I remember when people thought that bionic arms etc. were only science fiction... Man, times 'a' changin'

[kongurous]

Pretty soon, we'll have robotic eyes and then I can finally have a freak accident and have my left arm replaced and get a robotic eye. Then, I'll have the proper equipment for either a 40k or Jet Black cosplay :D

[IrishDutchman]

Well, they have boner-machines already. (Or so I've heard)

[Dezzick]

I'll try and dig that one up.

On second thoughts, I won't.

My brother's goal is to grow up and replace his entire body with bionic parts, rofl, so he can live forever, and kick anyones ass he wants >_>;;

The human bodies design beats all others. In our lifetime, I doubt we'll be able to make artificial inorganic limbs that are as functional as their organic human components. I doubt that technology can beat the intelligent design (or thousands of years of evolution, if you prefer).

However, when they start cloning replacement parts, that seems like it will have a greater chance of success.

I think it's called women.

Heh, I know how he feels. I kind of wanna do that too... But only if they perfect the method.


But yeah, that's pretty cool. However, I wonder why they insist on coloring those things (the prosthetic arm) that paticuler color. I know it's suposed to make it look "natural" but if I had to have one of those, I know I'd love it if it looked like something out of Terminator. :P

When I saw this, I was think "oh snap, one more step torwards the Collective" I hope it doesnt turn out that way.

"We are the Bionic. Lower your shields and surrender your vessels. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile." Or words to that effect.
