Bionic Artificial Pacemaker and Electronic Noses

Abstract Bionics is a field, which combines both electronics and biology. In simple terms, when we think about bionics, it is generally more about prosthetic arms or leg enhancement worn outside the body and, to some extend, even implanted sensor devices inside the body, which are essentially enhanced to carry out certain routine tasks. These are essentially life systems that are powered by motors/actuators and sensory arrays. These send neural signals from affected part of the body to the brain, by which individual are Able to perform certain tasks independently. TABLE OF CONTENT 1.

Brain gates are also used in bionic field. The last few decades have been wonderful years for technological advances, both for the medical and the electronics industry in the form of miniaturised electro nic components, sophisticated microchips and advanced computer systems—all functionally embedded in the human body. This particular human-to-machine interface, aptly termed as ‘Cyborg entities’ or ‘Bionic bodies’, has helped people with physical disabilities (the differently abled) by providing them with artificial Limbs, cochlear implants, artificial muscles and other organs to perform tasks, enabling them to lead a notably better lifestyle. 3.Artificial muscles [pic] What would the human body be without muscles? Just a dangling skeleton! Quite a scary thought! So in the case of damaged muscle, is there a possibility of generating new muscles altogether! Well, yes— one such scenario is the use of EAP or Electroactive Polymers. These are often referred to as artificial muscles and are increasingly being used by researchers to assist
