Kevin Warwick’s Cyborg Experiments

by Socrates on July 20, 2010

Kevin Warwick is an internationally renowned Professor and researcher in the field of Cybernetics from the University of Reading, England. His work in the areas of Artificial Intelligence, human control functions, robotics and cybernetic organisms presented here shows how implant and electrode technology can be used to create biological brains for robots, to enable human enhancement and possible therapeutic effects for neurological illness.

In any case, the end goal is human enhancement, or transhumanism, which inevitably stirs up many social, ethical and philosophical questions.
