Eyeborg's Cyborgs: How close is the modern world to cyborg fiction?



This fascinating mini documentary about cyborgs, commissioned by Deus Ex creators to be released in correlation with the game covers the topic of augmentations and current day 'cyborgs.' The main protagonist of the documentary and filmmaker, Rob Spence lost an eye in a shotgun accident and now has an artificial eye with a camera embedded into it. Throughout the documentary he interviews various individuals with different conditions that require artificial limbs, and they cover how far off we are from seeing the type of technology present in the video game. Fascinating stuff.
