Myths about
the people who subjected his body to the synthesis technique for a long time
excite the minds of science fiction writers. In the literature, games, movies
you can find another half-robot with a human heart. As far as today, realize
opportunities for self-adjustment of the body, functioning mechanism.
Let's start
with the most shocking statement made this spring. Mankind has risked to come
close to the boundaries of life and death, and a human head transplant. Yes, my
head will be planted on the human body and mechanical prostheses will not be
used. But the body itself, will be conditional to the artificial head. This
action affects the most sensitive issue in the world of prosthetics, today.
Namely, the transmission of nerve impulses from the brain to the body and
receiving feedback. Without this line of communication - life (existence) is
impossible.
Returning
to the subject using a prosthesis technology, we get 2 types of prostheses. Exo
and endo prosthetic dentures.
First -
this is artificial limbs and skin. Those parts of our body that is in close
contact with the environment. Hands, feet, leather. Three main groups to be the
most mechanical replacement. There is a sufficient number of companies
specializing in the manufacture of such prostheses. Conventionally, they can be
divided into three groups.
Prostheses
that take command of survivors muscles and reduced in accordance with them.
They do not convey feelings and are not controlled by the brain. Yet they can
lead the smartphone.
Prostheses that
take command of the brain. Artificial neurons, or sensors for receiving
biological signals implanted into the body, digitize and transmit these signals
to the limb. Management limb - like his own. But do not receive feedback in the
form of transmission of kinesthetic sense, temperature, etc.
Prostheses
that take command of the brain as the previous, and transmitted back to the
brain directly own feelings. Their minus - a large size. These prostheses work
while connected to the auxiliary data transmission systems and signal
processing.
Today, we
can replace the hands, feet and skin on the entire artificial, while losing
little share experiences and involvement in the world.
