Types of cyborgs Fictional behaviour

Cyborg proliferation in society

Advantages Disadvantages

INTRODUCTION
Kevin Warwick has taken the first steps on this

path In the years ahead we will witness machine with an intelligence more powerful than that of humans It will be robot dominated world with dire consequences for humankind

DEFINITION
A cyborg is a cybernetic organism,humanpart machine The cybernetic pioneer prof.Kevin Warwick, the worlds leading expert in cybernetics is upgrading the human body starting with himself

TYPES OF CYBORGS

Individual cyborgs
cyborgs is used to refer to a man or woman with bionic or robotic implants Today,the C-LEG system is used to replace human legs that are amputated because of injuries or illness

First cyborg

 Social cyborgs
More broadly, the full term CYBernetic ORGanism is used to describe larger networks of communication and control A corporation can be considered as an artificial intelligence that makes uses of replaceable human components to function

CYBORG PROLIFERATION IN THE SOCIETY

Medicine

Military
Marine cyborgs Sports & Steroids

Blood doping
Prosthesis

MEDICINE
In medicine there are two important different types of cyborgs Restorative technologies Enhanced technologies

MILITARY

Military organisations research has recently focused on the utilization of cyborg animals for inter species relationship for the purposes of a supposed a tactical advantages

MARINE CYBORGS
The term cyborgs not only applies to the humans,but to animals as well Some of the best examples of such animals cyborgs one from the ocean,but such research is relatively new

STEROIDS
The most commonly used steroids in sports is Anabolic steroids Anabolic steroids increases the amount of testosterone in the body promotes the musle and bone in the body

PROSTHESIS
The most common forms of prosthesis an enhancements we see in the sports today are TOMMY JOHN Surgery PROSTHETIC Legs

 ADVANTAGES

prolongs life enables one to lead a normal life Give a part of the body back Improves the quality of life

DISADVANTAGES

Training is needed for doctors They are all Expensive Pyschological problems Feeling different to everyone else The risk of rejection Pain during operations

CONCLUSION

The idea is that in the future we may have more and more artificial body parts arms,legs,hearts,eyes and so on..
