A Seminar Presentation
On
CYBORG

3. INTRODUCTION
 A CYBORG, short for " cybernetic
organism ", is a being with both organic
and mechanical parts of living creatures or
human.
 CYBORG is a combination between living
creature and machine . It is different from
robotics.
 CYBORG Technology is used for repair or
overcome from physical or mental
desease.

4. INTRODUCTION
 We can define a CYBORG using block

5. KEVIN WARWICK:CAPTAIN
CYBORG
 KEVIN WARWICK(born 9 February 1954) is a
British scientist and professor of cybernetics at
the University of Reading in the United
Kingdom.

6. KEVIN WARWICK:CAPTAIN
CYBORG
 He is the most famous Cyborg because of his
research.He is known for his studies on direct
interfaces between computer systems and the
human nervous system, and has also done
research in the field of robotics.
 Warwick carries out research in artificial
intelligence, biomedical engineering, control
systems and robotics.

7. Project Cyborg
 In “Project Cyborg” Warwick
implanted a computer chip in his
arm with the aim of becoming a
Cyborg.
By means of the implant,Warwick„s
nervous system was connected onto
the internet in Columbia University,
New York

8. Project Cyborg
 A highly publicised extension to the
experiment, in which a simpler array was
implanted into the arm of Warwick's wife, it
resulted in the first direct and purely electronic
communication between the nervous systems
of two humans

10. NEIL HARBISSON
 Neil Harbisson was born with extreme
colorblindness that meant he could only see in
black-and-white, he is now capable of
experiencing colors beyond the scope of
normal human perception.

11. NEIL HARBISSON
 Harbisson is equipped with a specialized
electronic eye, or eyeborg, which renders
perceived colors as sounds on the musical
scale

12. Jesse Sullivan
 He effectively became one of the world's first
cyborgs when he was equipped with a bionic
limb, connected through a nerve-muscle graft.
Not only can Sullivan control his new limb with
his mind, he can also feel hot, cold, and the
amount of pressure his grip is applying.

13. Jens Naumann
 After a pair of horrific accidents, Jens
Naumann was struck blind in both eyes. In
2002, Naumann became the first person in the
world to receive an artificial vision system. His
electronic eye is connected directly to his
visual cortex through brain implants

14. Jerry Jalava
 After losing a finger in a motorcycle accident,
Jalava decided to embed a 2GB USB port into
his finger.

15. Cameron Clapp
 When he was 14, he collapsed and fainted
along a railroad track. When the train passed,
he unfortunately lost both of his legs plus an
arm. He got fitted with a couple of prosthetic
legs controlled by his brain with the help of a
microprocessor

16. ANIMAL CYBORGS
 The US-based company Backyard Brains
released what they refer to as "The world's first
commercially available cyborg" called the
RoboRoach.

18. ADVANTAGES OF BECOMING A
CYBORG
#1 Returning Function
#2 Increased Strength
#3 Added Functionality
#4 Possibly Longer Lifespan
#5 Increased Intelligence/Computational
Power/Perception

19. DISADVANTAGES OF
BECOMING A CYBORG
#1 Possible loss of humanity
#2 Expensive
#3 Loss of Acceptable Appearance
#4 Likely to Die in the Creation Procedures
#5 You Are Now Property of a Government
