  1. Cybernetic Prosthetics Kendric Evans Gone are the days when losing a limb or organ was permanent With the advent of smaller microprocessors and businesses beginning to see dollar signs, robotic limbs and artificial organs are no longer confined to science fiction. Significant advancements in the fields of biomimicry, artificial neurons, robotic muscles and sugar-powered robotics have made such things not only feasible, but profitable. Microchips in artificial legs can detect when weight is put on it and adjust hydraulics to accommodate that weight. Implants for diabetics may soon be able to determine if they need insulin and administer it automatically. How far will it go? “One possibility is to link humans with machines, to create cyborgs, part human, part machine” ~Kevin Warwick, Professor of cybernetics
