showcase Human Augmentation showcase & discussion thread

[NickB]

I am pretty excited by this area......

Lot's of potential, lot's of technology involved and governments and companies are taking a serious interest in this space

It's also known as Human Enhancement but I think Augmentation is going to be mainstream.....

I like the Ministry of Defence's explanation on what it is.....

"The application of science and technologies to temporarily or permanently improve human performance"

Really detailed breakdown from them below

"Human Augmentation - The dawn of a New Paradigm"

Some lighter reading below

Have you got any domains related to this space, if so feel free to share them here as well as any news.....

Human augmentation with robotic body parts is at hand, say scientists​

Extra parts, from a thumb to an arm, could be designed to help boost our capabilities

Humans could have wings, tentacles or an extra ARM 'in the next few decades' thanks to leaps in human augmentation, experts predict​

Got to love the difference in the above titles.....

Waiting on those wings

Waiting on those wings

I'm a tentacle man myself

The Daily Mail is a rag......good that it's been mentioned in the mainstream media though

May as well share an article I did on LinkedIn a couple of months ago on this niche - it was geared towards HR as my main job is in event management within this space

"Understanding Human Augmentation and Its Implications for Human Resources"
