What is the advantages of bionics?

Answer 1

vBionics can improve the quality of life for those with certain disabilities.

vIt is minimally invasive, reducing health risks to patients

vScientists have gained a better understanding of the human body

vBionics has enabled scientists to understand the biophysics of the body, leading to the creation of implantable aids or external prostheses.

üMinimally invasive medical techniques, such as bionics involve:

üsmaller incisions

üless post-operative pain

üfewer complications from healing wounds

üminimal scarring

üquicker recovery time

üshorter hospital stays and therefore is considerably cheaper.

vbiomaterials and biomedical devices can be used to replace damaged or diseased body parts including:

üpins, screws and plates

üartificial joints

üpacemakers

üartificial valves

ücrowns, dentures

ülenses

üprosthetic limbs

ücochlear implants

vthe functions of biological systems are synchronized from molecules to the whole ecosphere

vBionics will be integral (everlasting) in material cycles

v Scientists predict there will be a corresponding reduction in energy consumption and an increase in material efficiency and product durability.
