Miniature electronics, precision surgical techniques, and an ever-increasing understanding of the human body are making it possible for medical researchers to turn science fiction into science fact. Covering sophisticated leg prostheses, remarkable artificial vision systems, and astonishing advances in brain signal translation, this program examines the complex and futuristic research that is melding human and machine. Osseointegration pioneer Richard Branemark, vision visionary William Dobelle, and Duke University’s Miguel Nicolelis are spotlighted. (57 minutes)
