the prosthesis that will divide humanity?

[ad_1]

A prosthesis based on the universe of the fun video series Deus Ex will be created by Open Bionics, in collaboration with Eidos and Square Enix.

You can’t kill progress ! The slogan of the next Square Enix and Eidos game expected for August, Deus Ex – Mankind Divided, Understood everything.

The Deus Ex video game series explores the growth and optimization of human beings, and the next installment, entitled Mankind Divided (divided humanity), highlights how many of us can be distrustful, even afraid of men. and women with bionic implants.

However, the creators behind the game have come together to create prosthetic limbs directly inspired by those crossed in the game.

Deus Ex, to optimize humanity?

Open Bionics, which had previously collaborated with Disney to create prostheses inspired by the heroes of Star Wars and Marvel, will produce a robotic arm based on that ofAdam Jensen, hero of the Deus Ex series. It is doubtful, however, that the blades and other firearms are integrated.

The first rendering remains modest, but the trailer broadcast by Deus Ex's YouTube channel shows concepts for both Jensen's arm, but also for a more abstract prosthesis. André Vu, executive director of the Deus Ex brand said:

We wanted something fashionable… something really smooth that you could be proud to wear.

The team has thus built a semi-functional prototype and will therefore concentrate on perfecting its functionalities (notably grasping objects). The files and directions for the design of the prosthesis will be open source, to allow those who wish to print their own arm in 3D from health home.

In addition, Open Bionics and Eidos have teamed up with Intel and Razer to program a direct link and interaction between a real arm and a prosthesis.

If this is not the first time that a prosthesis from a fictional universe has seen the light of day, it seems relevant on the part of Eidos to look into this area, that they had already addressed in their saga. It remains to be seen whether humanity will split between men and "optimized", although opinion already seems divided.
