A team of scientist developed an implanted interface called “e-Dura” which could help in partially damaged spinal cord through a combination of electrical and chemical stimulation. They are going to soon test it to improve or enhance the existing state of partially damage spinal cord in human. Their e-Dura implant is designed specifically for implantation on …...
Dr. José Cordeiro is a member of Nasa’s Singularity University and global think-tank The Millennium Project, and one of an increasing number of researchers encouraging everyone from schoolchildren to business leaders to think big – very big – about the future. He said, do you want mental powers of calculation that make the most powerful …...
1 Introduction Where does the mind stop and the rest of the world begin? The question invites two standard replies. Some accept the demarcations of skin and skull, and say that what is outside the body is outside the mind. Others are impressed by arguments suggesting that the meaning of our words “just ain’t in …...
National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), USA is developing 14 Transhumanist technologies for upcoming future. They are developing technologies like Prosthetic Leg, Wireless Brain Computer Interface, Synthetic Tissue, Cartilage Regeneration, Implantable Sensor etc. They have just launched an app for demonstration of their technologies as Bionic Man....
Since I wrote couple of articles on Brain Computer Interface and Visioning 2050 the world has seen the emergence of MindRDR, which allows users to take pictures and upload them on the web through HMDs such as Google Glass, all with just a thought. The future, is here. MindRDR’s innovative app product is a mere beginning. …...
A quiet revolution is happening in competitive sports. Some futurists think that in just decades, humans will sprint faster than horses, people will shoot guns with near-perfect accuracy using bionic eyes, and athletes will swim entire races without taking a breath. Already, untainted urine samples have become as essential to top runners as their shoes. …...
The primary purpose and function of the Brain Computer Interface technology in development today, to be the standard input, interaction or interface means for all computing and communication devices in less than two decades from now, is to enable the user to use thought, the signal of which is detected and interpreted, to instruct a …...
Whenever I watch sci-fi films, TV shows, etc., I always tend to over-think certain scenes or actions which catches my eye as being near unbelievable or unachievable. My thoughts go intohow we can make them achievable, and thus believable to the mass populace. One in particular lately has been what is called a “mind meld” from the …...
A recent conversation on a Linkedin group drew attention to automated robots writing the news soon after events occur, for media agencies. This lead a veteran Futurist to ponder the prospect of automated technology eventually using the same system and algorithms to create automated AI enabled robots or systems to forecast or plan scenarios, rendering …...
Needs will almost always come before wants. When it comes to Transhumanism, the ability to differentiate the two tends to blur, because a need could also be a want, depending on the various methods of achieving a need. There’s the “getting by” need, and then there’s the “thriving” need. For the handicapped, this dichotomy determines …...
