Scientists Create the First “Bionic Man”

Built using artificial organs, this bionic man has a beating heart, working kidney, lungs, and pancreas - it can also hear and see It has between 60 to 60 per cent of normal human functions. A team of engineers has assembled a robot using artificial organs, limbs and other body parts that comes tantalizingly close to a true 'bionic man.' For real, this time. Called "The Incredible Bionic Man," it chronicles engineers' attempt to assemble a functioning body using artificial parts that range from a working kidney and circulation system to cochlear and retina implants.
