prosthetic

(Just the amputation is going to be between £8,000 and £16,000), followed by considerable physiotherapy and prosthetic legs.

That guy can still run in the olympics with any other set of prosthetic legs but this one.

Standard Cyborg is building a better version of the prosthetic limb for a small fraction of the cost.

Like any prosthetic, the point of them is to give you back the options that having the impairment takes away.

Telephones can be considered prosthetic ears: they can extend your power of hearing across continents.

Even (especially?) for individuals in companies, email and the like become a memory prosthetic.

Ships can be considered prosthetic feet, they extend your power of travel, etc.

So these people feel like their leg is prosthetic in a way?

The e-nable project that's putting prosthetic hands within financial reach (ugh, sorry, no pun intended) by bringing costs down via 3D-print-at-home is pretty impressive.

Then after they're fully integrated, start prioritizing experiencing through the mind prosthetic.

It makes sense to let the market decide how much to invest in this research acoording to the size of the amputee prosthetic market.

Seriously, I'd much rather have night vision prosthetic eyes and not make trees into light sources.

I mean fuck man we all know HN “hackers” flat refuse to buy anything except porn, lube, and prosthetic dildos to compensate for their teeny tiny weenies.

I wonder if the branding "cyborg" appeals to most prosthetic limb users?

“We take that information and translate that into actual movements within a prosthetic.” 3.
