More human than human? The world of modern medical implants
The cochlear implants invented by the Hochmairs are one of a growing number of
advanced prostheses and implants that enable their users to perform an everincreasing list of important functions.
A host space-age materials and cutting-edge technologies are continually extending
the boundaries of what replacement limbs and organs are able to accomplish.
Prosthetic legs now feature advances such as hydraulics, microchips, or carbon fibre
“blades” allowing their wearers to sprint, jump and run. Advanced hand prosthetics
rely on tiny servo motors to deliver highly precise digit articulation.
Is science-fiction becoming a reality and will prosthetics soon surpass the organs and
limbs they replace? Read more about top developments in the field of bionics
