Our future body is bionic

"I've never asked for this..."

This statement has become famous with the trailer of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, where Adam Jensen is becoming a augmented human (cyborg) after an accident. He never asked for this, but many of us may do in a near future. While human augmentation and the kind of prosthesis shown in the game are still of the dream domain we can expect them to be soon a reality. Artificial limbs of all type are beginning to spread out, as well as synthetic organs. The last couples of days seen a viral dissemination about two projects:
- Rex, the "bionic man" which is currently displayed in London
- The first "bionic eye" reaching a commercial maturity level

The mankind flower is about to blow, and it will be synthetic...
