These People Have Turned Themselves Into Cyborgs With Unbelievable Body Modifications!

These people have turned themselves into cyborgs with some unbelievable technological body modifications! You’ll be definitely surprised to know what they did to themselves deliberately.

• Handy ear.

  
  Professor Stelarc keeps his third ear handy. He has grown his third ear on his hand with a surgical implant. His next step to do is implanting there a wi-fi microphone with the access to the internet, so his third ear could find hearing. “This ear is not for me,” Stelarc, whose experimental lab is based at Curtin University in Perth, says. “I’ve got two good ears to hear with. This ear is a remote listening device for other people. They’ll be able to follow a conversation or hear the sounds of a concert, wherever I am, wherever you are.” 
  
  

  • Human switch.

    
    Kevin Warwick is a professor of cybernetics at the University of Reading, UK. He was one of the first people in the world to have an RFID tag implanted in his arm. It let him open the automatic doors without touching them and switch the lights on in his laboratory by simply walking in. Later he implanted a 100-electrode chip into the nerve fibres of his arms that transmitted signals from his wrist straight to his computer – without a mouse.
  
  

  • This guy must be seriously concerned with climate control…

    
    Tim Cannon has sewn into his hand a DIY-device the size a pack of cigarettes to monitor his blood pressure and temperature. This device is wirelessly connected with a thermostat, controlling the climate in a room based on his owner’s body temperature. Eventually, he had to remove this device from his hand but he already works on a new one – able to detect oxygenation levels and blood glucose levels, as well as heart rate data and blood pressure.
  
  

  • His eyes can see in the darkness.

    
    This looks pretty much scary and ophthalmologists warn that it can be potentially dangerous too. However, it didn’t stop Gabriel Licina from trying to drip a chemical cocktail into his own eyes. After turning his eyes totally black, the liquid let the scientist identify small shapes 10 metres away in the dark, as well as spotting a person hiding in the bush 50 metres away in darkness.
  
  

  • He hears colours!

    
    Neil Harbisson was born totally colour-blind and sees the world in grey colours. This antenna is connected to his skull and translates colour into sound with help of a microchip. This antenna also allows perceiving infrared and ultraviolet which are beyond normal human spectrum. “For me, red isn’t the colour of passion as it is for many humans,” Harbison says. “It’s a serene colour. Violet, though, is savage to my ears.”
  
  

  • Effective cure for headache.

    
    Does it look painful? Well, actually this electric stimulator was inserted into Sander Pleij’s body to cure his chronic headaches. This remote-controlled device sends electrical impulses to the nerves in his head, calming headaches when they hit.
  
  

  • USB-Finger.

    
    This guy is going to be very popular with the cyborg ladies! When Finnish computer programmer Jerry Jalava lost one of his fingers in a motorcycle accident, he has made himself a prosthetic replacement with a USB drive attached. “First when people saw it they got really horrified”, he says, but still thinks it’s a funny solution. Now Jerry Jalava is thinking about upgrading the finger to include more storage and wireless technology.
