Exoskeletons, bionics and prosthetics can help you live longer and become more powerful. However, are you willing to become a cyborg, a human enhanced by mechanical elements? Does the thought of becoming a cyborg terrify or intrigue you? How would you be perceived by others? Would that be worth abilities such superhuman strength and running faster without becoming tired?
In Live to 100 or Live to 1000, we noted that to live much much longer, our human bodies must eventually undergo mechanical improvements. Hip and knee replacements have become standard reliable surgical procedures with over 2.4 million completed annually in America. Going even farther, leading-edge companies are making exoskeletons, bionics and prosthetics.
What capabilities can they provide to you today? What additional improvements will arrive in the next few years?
Below are the top exoskeleton, bionic and prosthetic companies working on improving your physical abilities. The ideal goal is for providing natural sensation of joint movement and effort from neurally-controlled devices. Our article, Connect with Your Brain, covers the leading brain and neural implant companies. Full integration between all cyborg components will provide the best user experience.
