Research progress of bionic man

The word "bionic man" was first born in the 1970s. At that time, a sci-fi TV series called "Six Million Dollars of Mankind" was popular in America. In the play, people saw that astronauts almost died in a mission, and later their limbs were reconstructed by artificial organs. Decades later, this sci-fi scene was confirmed in Rex.

After the world's first flesh-and-blood bionic man appeared in the London Museum, many people were curious about his flesh-and-blood ability to tell jokes. The body frame of this multi-million-dollar bionic robot is gradually approaching human beings. Pancreas, lungs, spleen, cochlea, retina and other artificial organs, and even artificial blood circulation system, are similar to humans in appearance, almost reaching the point of confusing the real with the fake. Pedestrians and artificial tendons help it walk upright, its arms and palms move freely by batteries, the combination of retina chip and glasses camera helps it have vision, artificial heart makes it have heartbeat and even breathing, cochlear implant makes it have hearing, and 3D printing technology gives it bones. Russia's i-Free company provided it with artificial intelligence technology. Through this technology, some small instructions can be recognized, and Rex can even tell a few humorous jokes. The voice technology provided by NeoSpeech Company helps it to make sound, and the famous physicist Stephen Hawking uses the company's voice synthesis technology to communicate with the outside world.

Professor Robert McClaren of Oxford University expressed the hope that patients who are completely blind can see basic shapes and objects. Scientists hope that this technology can one day replace the failed heart, kidney, pancreas and spleen, thus solving the problem of insufficient organ donation around the world. In fact, SynCardia's artificial heart has saved many lives, and more than 65,438+0,000 people have transplanted this battery-driven heart. It can replace the sick heart until a suitable donor heart is found. The foot and ankle were invented by Professor Hugh Hull of MIT. Artificial feet and ankles imitate the movements of gastrocnemius and achilles tendon.
