well, all this has actually happened. Kevin Warwick is called as the world's first "cyborg" or as you call it, a cybernetic organism. He's been doing research in this field and has a microchip implanted in his body which is directly connected to his brain. the chip senses his nerve signals and acts accordingly. for example, he could control a robot over the internet which was miles away just by thinking!!! in order to lift the robot's hand, he just had to "think" about it. If that's not all, he implanted the same chip in his wife and they both were connected to each other, and they could like mentally talk to each other. the borg are coming!!

you people watch to much ghost in a shell, i tell why it will be impossible to do anything like that, human physics 101, you cannot keepa brain alive cuz once you discount it from the body everything shuts down, and so does the brain, forget about the frankennstien stories cuz thier is no way from what i understand to electroshock a brain back into working order, most doctors and scientists are still working out the details of false body paorts like arms and legs, yeah its been going on for ahile computer technology is somewhat making improvements but its all thoery and if their was any practical way in doing it i don't think anyone would want to volunterr to have their brain removed and transplanted in a robot or another body, just to many risks involve.

So it's begun... Well, these chips right now can Improve Eye vision, Improve Hearing, and enable the person to have a sense they didnt have before or improve one...

The second it becomes a requirement to install chips so I can be registered, im leaving the US. Im sorry, but I cant accept that I can be traced and have radio be broadcasted into my brain.

Of course, with good comes evil. Military can improve a soliders performance to the point where a solider can be an average person transformed into a super solider. Who knows... one day, in return for improving sight, when we are in war, the chips can take control of us...

The possibilities of this... is horrifying and glorious. But it will be a cold day in hell when I allow myself to merge with a machine. If you become one with a machine, you are a machine. Being one with something thats not human has never happened before in the history of man kind. When it finally does happen, we will no longer be defined as human beings.

Scary huh? It hasnt even started yet.

The RFID technology referred to in a previous post is already being implanted in humans. I saw a Fox News program that indicated in a New Jersey hospital these are being promoted heavily in the emergency room as a way to save lives.

Several RFID companies are producing products that could be used subcutaneously. But the VeriChip (www.4verichip.com) seems to be leading the pack. I read an article indicating these chips are being put into security personnel in Mexico and are even being promoted in some night clubs for financial transactions, i.e., no more credit card necessary.

I even read somewhere that the next generation of these chips will include GPS for easy tracking of the user. This use, of course, is to track missing children. But it may be used for tracking anyone (how convenient). Anyway, do a Google search on VeriChip and RFID implants and you can read a lot of this stuff for yourself.

Wow cool! I think in future no human catogarized as dumb people, you can plant a micro chip processor on your brain, so if you want to study something you can just download some program, just like one in the matrix movie
If they're need any "rabit lab" I would be happily to be one kidding

i guess these things will happen in the near fiture, sooner that we expect it to be..~

as for myself, id rather not have those things inside me, but for others
i think they would fall for this..
depends really.. since its not widely spread yet and few info about it is known, it would be hard to say if one will try this kind of new technology or not~

in the medical field, if this things canhelp heal tissues and nerves in the body, it would be a really good help, since nerves do not regnerate, being able to find a way to heal it by using technology wouldbe of great help~

Maybe in the future we can have another way of communication, using the chips in our bodies.
Planting a chip in our bodies doesn't mean that they plant a computer linking to every part of our bodies...
It means to add a part to help us communicate, store data, check your surroundings, give warnings......
that could mean a lot to us, like making us available to use many types of cool things such as: telepathy, sixth sense and super minds with the help of machines.

lol, your joking right?

hmmm... I don't think that merging pc with a human would be a good idea, but maybe it could let's say smth to remember more, or music inside you, or smth that could help you move faster, or stuff those inventions in your body would maybe be cool cuz i think every teen that goes to school would really like to prepare faster for egzams so like memory saver or stuff could help it, or going somewhere far a something that could help you walk would be great ! Well maybe 20 years later we will have something implanted in our bodies

Hmm... I actualy can't wait for this to advance. How I wish sometimes I could have a built in calculator, or something alike in my body, or some super cool ability. If I got asked if I would like to test this new technology, I would scarily say "Yes, of course!" to it.

I wonder how long till Microsoft make the website "http://human.microsoft.com" !

Looks like they are trying to make this take off, and good on them.

Have a good day!

iam against thinks like that. of course this can b e used for identification and everything but if it keeps going like that even your local store might be able to get your whole life report, what you buy, what car u have, how many children, criminal record and all that stuff.
