Bionic technology

BIONIC TECHNOLOGYPRESENTED BY: PRITAM PATANGE

INTRODUCTION

Bionic human referred to a human being with bodily functions aided or controlled by technological devices.

Bionic having normal biological capability or performance enhanced by or as if by electronic or electromechanical devices .

Cyborg is a best application of bionic technology.

NEED OF BIONIC TECHNOLOGY

Bionic technology Gives artificial sight to blind people.

It is a cure for handicapped person. It is more durable and more efficient against organic life.

It helps in evolution of human.

CYBORG

CYBORG is short name of “cybernetic organism”.

CYBORG is a combination between man and machine.

Different from a robot.

Used to repair or overcome physical

and mental constraints.

HISTORY

The idea of a man-machine mixture was popular in science fiction before world war II.

In 1960 Manfred Clynes and Nathen Kine had combined the words cybernetics and organism to form a new term: CYBORG.

Prof. Kevin Warwick fired an array of 100 electrodes himself into his nervous system in order to link with internet to control a robotic hand, a loudspeaker and amplifier.

CONTINUED…

In recent science fiction movie “IRON MAN 3”, Tony Stark injected electrodes into his hands like Kevin Warwick for sake of recognizing him by his iron suite.

TYPES OF CYBORG

Convenient Cyborg: Convenient cyborgs may refer to any external provision of an exoskeleton for the satisfying the altered fancy needs of body.

Conditional Cyborg: Conditional Cyborgs includes bionic implants replanting the lost or damaged body for the normal living in the present environment.

LATEST TECHNOLOGY

At present Cyborgology concentrates on the development of Conditional cyborgs.

That is living being with a mechanical body part which is replaced for the damaged or lost body part.

CYBORGS AND ROBOTS

Cyborg Robot Cyborgs are a

combination of a living organism and a machine. It doesn’t necessarily have to be human; it can be a dog, a bird, or any other living thing.

A robot is basically a machine that is very advanced . It is often automated and requires very little interaction with humans.

A cyborg is a combination of an organism with a machine. It’s a part of living beings

A robot is an automated machine. It’s not alive.

Cyborgs are typically very complex.

Robots can be simple or very complex.

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF CYBORGS

ADVANTAGES

• Prolongs life. • Enables one to lead a normal life. • Gives artificial sight to blind people.

• Gives a part of the body back. • Improves the quality of life. • Long life of the mechanical parts.

DISADVANTAGES

• It has physical limitations.• Cyborg do not heal Body damage normally• Cyborgs are very expensive.• Requires maintenance• The risk of rejection/infection• Training is needed for doctors • Psychological problems • Feeling ‘different’ to everyone else • Pain during operation 

CONCLUSION

It seems that in future we may have more and more artificial body parts like eyes, nose, hands and legs.

It act as a boom to human body by improving the quality and the life .

But it also act as a curse.
