Cyborg 1.0
This article discusses experiments going on in England right now at the University of Reading. He as already experiment with a chip implanted in his arm which monitored his movement and performed tasks such as opening doors, turning on lights, and greeting him as he entered buildings.
He is now beginning more in-depth experiments by implanting more chips into his arms which will monitor and interact with his hand and arm movement. The pieces are encased in glass and communicate with computers via radio wave signals.
If this proves to be successful, he hopes to expand the experiment with implants in his wife.
The goal of this new experiment is to allow his hand and arm movements through programmed commands to interact with a computer and accomplish certain tasks. Therefore making life more efficient and easy.
