Researchers at Linköping University have built artificial neurons from conductive plastics that replicate up to 17 biological nerve cell properties. This could transform medical implants, prosthetics and robotics.

Cyborgs: We examine the concepts of cyborgs, clarify what they are and how they differ from bionics, androids, and similar concepts
We also discuss some of the lesser known options for augmentation and explore the notion of man-machine integration.

A mobile robot scientist capable of carrying out experiments by itself
We live in a time when robots can clean our homes, drive our vehicles, deactivate bombs, offer prosthetic limbs, help healthcare workers, read the news, entertain, teach, and many more. And now, there is a robot scientist that can work on behalf of humans 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Researchers at the University of Liverpool have built an intelligent “robot scientist” capable of moving around a laboratory and carrying out scientific experiments by itself. The first of its kind machine with humanoid dimensions are designed to work in a standard laboratory, using instruments much as a human researcher does. It can also make its own decisions about which chemistry experiments to perform next.
The robot scientist is 1.75-meter tall, weighs around 400 kg, and can roam around the laboratory, performing a wide range of different tasks. Unlike a human being, the robot has infinite patience, can think in 10 dimensions, and works for 21.5 hours each day, pausing only to recharge its battery for two hours. This will allow scientists to automate time-consuming and tedious research they wouldn’t otherwise tackle.
New aortic repair device improves patient survival and recovery
King George, Albert Einstein, John Ritter, Richard Holbrooke, George C Scott, Lucille Ball, Betty Garrett, Walter Huston, Humphrey Lyttleton, Marilyn Chambers, and Michael Rennie all died from the same thing, Aortic dissection however the FDA recently approved AMDS Hybrid Prosthesis is helping change that by greatly inproving survival and recovery rates. UI Health Care is the first in Iowa to implant a patient with the recently approved AMDS Hybrid Prosthesis.
Patients who experience a specific type of aortic tear now have a new treatment option available at UI Health Care. The AMDS Hybrid Prosthesis, the world’s first aortic arch remodeling device, was recently approved for DeBakey Type 1 aortic dissection patients.
DeBakey Type 1 aortic dissection is a tear in the inner layer of the wall of the aorta—the main artery that carries oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body. An aortic dissection causes blood to flow between the wall layers, which slows or stops normal blood flow and can lead to a complete rupture of the aorta. The condition is emergent, life-threatening, and requires immediate surgical repair.
The current treatment option involves removing a portion of the damaged aorta and grafting a synthetic tube in its place. These procedures are successful but often fail to treat the remainder of the diseased aorta, which can result in complications and the need for additional procedures in the future.
Timelapse of Future Humanoid Robots (2029 — 2200+)
This is the future of AI and robots. Take a journey into the future and explore the possibilities and predictions of AI humanoid robots. This timelapse of the future explores robots that move faster than humans can see, humanoids and teslabots with human skin faces (biobots), and the building of an artificial super intelligence that walks among humans.
Game parks allow humans in their homes to control humanoids in hybrid digital real world games.
Humanoids are able to self-transfer their entire minds into digital backup worlds and into other physical machines.
Hives of humanoids link their computational power into a single super-intelligence while maintaining individual bodies. They are building a super intelligence. More intelligent than the collective. An intelligence that lives in the digital world… and the real.

Scorpion-inspired pressure sensors let robots feel their surroundings
Nature, the master engineer, is coming to our rescue again. Inspired by scorpions, scientists have created new pressure sensors that are both highly sensitive and able to work across a wide variety of pressures.
Pressure sensors are key components in an array of applications, from medical devices and industrial control systems to robotics and human-machine interfaces. Silicon-based piezoresistive sensors are among the most common types used today, but they have a significant limitation. They can’t be super sensitive to changes and work well across a range of pressures at the same time. Often, you have to choose one over the other.
