Rex the Bionic Man

Roboticists in the UK have assembled a variety of prosthetic body parts from 18 companies and universities to create a humanoid robot. With a face modeled on Swiss psychologist Bertolt Meyer, who himself uses the iLimb ultra bionic hand and star of the recent Channel 4 documentary How to Build a Bionic Man (which shows some of the phenomenal technology in the works), Rex is a $1 million dollar collection of prosthetic body parts. Some of the components of Rex are: a self teaching arm with 26 degrees of movement; glasses that send images to a microchip in the retina that sends the info to the computer brain; synthetic blood; artificial lungs, an artificial pancreas with insulin stored in gel which softens and liquefies in the presence of excess glucose; a self-regulating artificial kidney, made up of a silicon nanoscale filtration system; a man-made spleen, bladder, ear, trachea and arteries; cochlear implants; a speech generator; bionic ankles using a motor and spring system to mimic human calf muscle and Achilles tendon; a battery powered heart; and an exoskeleton designed to allow paraplegics to walk. Rex is currently on display at the Science Museum in London, followed by an exhibition at The Smithsonian in Washington, DC. All I can say is "Wow..."
